What is ABA therapy?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is an evidence-based therapy that helps children develop meaningful life skills while reducing behaviors that may interfere with learning, communication, and everyday activities.
At Chances and Dreams, we believe every child learns differently. That's why our therapy is individualized, play-based, and designed around each child's unique strengths, interests, and goals. We focus on making learning fun while helping children build confidence, independence, and lifelong skills.

About Us
At Chances and Dreams, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to reach their fullest potential—and every family deserves a team that truly walks beside them.
Chances and Dreams was founded from a lifelong passion for serving children with autism and supporting the families who love them. After years of leading operations for ABA, Speech Therapy, and Occupational Therapy clinics, our founder, Katie Cuellar, recognized the opportunity to create something different—something more personal, compassionate, and family-centered than the traditional therapy model. She envisioned a clinic where families feel welcomed from the moment they walk through the door, children are celebrated for their unique strengths, and every decision is made with the child's best interest at heart.
As the owner, Katie remains actively involved in the day-to-day operations of Chances and Dreams. She works alongside her team to ensure the clinic operates with excellence, integrity, and consistency while maintaining the highest standards of care and customer service. Her hands-on leadership allows her to support families, mentor staff, solve challenges, and continuously improve the experience for every child who enters the clinic. Drawing from years of operational leadership across multidisciplinary therapy settings, Katie has built Chances and Dreams on the belief that exceptional therapy starts with exceptional people, strong communication, and a culture of compassion.
We know that every child learns differently, which is why our therapy programs are individualized, play-based, and designed to help children build confidence, communication, independence, and meaningful life skills. We celebrate every milestone—big or small—because every achievement deserves recognition.
We also believe therapy is about more than the child—it's about the entire family. Our goal is to provide parents with support, education, encouragement, and transparency so they never feel alone throughout their child's journey.
Today, Chances and Dreams proudly serves children 18 months through 8 years of age, providing high-quality, compassionate ABA services in an environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive.
Whether your child is beginning therapy for the first time or continuing their journey, we are honored you've chosen us to be part of your family's story.
