Founded and led by Lauren Bacotti, BCBA.
Centered Solutions was started by Lauren Bacotti, M.S.Ed, BCBA, after more than 20 years in the field. She remains the practice's Clinical Director, knows every clinician on the team personally, and stays involved in every case the practice takes on.
Larger practices route you to intake coordinators. Here, you can ask Lauren your questions yourself — mention “founder call” when you reach out.

What individualized care actually looks like.
A short, honest comparison — not a knock on larger providers. Different models suit different families.
Who designs the program
A template adapted to your child.
A program built from a fresh assessment of your child.
Who you talk to
An intake coordinator, then a rotating team.
The same BCBA, from intake through care — and responsive partners.
Hours recommendation
Often anchored to insurance maximums.
Anchored to client needs — even when that means fewer hours.
Where care happens
Often clinic-only or single-setting.
Home, school, and community — where the child needs the care.
From first conversation to first session.
No black box. Here's exactly what happens after you reach out — and roughly when.
- 01
Reach out
Share a little about your child. A clinician — not a script — replies.
- 02
Intro conversation
30 minutes with a BCBA to understand fit and answer real questions.
- 03
Insurance & intake
We help you navigate authorization without making it your job.
- 04
Assessment
A fresh, individualized clinical assessment — not a default plan.
- 05
Thoughtful matching
Clinician matched on availability, geography, and working style.
- 06
Care begins
Sessions begin with active BCBA oversight from day one.
Insurance coverage for ABA services.
We work with Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, United Healthcare, and NJ Family Care — and we'll walk you through authorization rather than leaving it to you.
