Opening 2026–2027

Rooted Pathways ABA is the planned in-home and in-school ABA practice from the Rooted Pathways family. It is not currently accepting clients. Add your family or organization to the early-interest list below and you’ll be the first to know when intake opens.

What Rooted Pathways ABA will offer

Rooted Pathways ABA is being built as a sister practice to Rooted Pathways Behavioral Wellness — same family, same values, same neurodiversity-affirming lens, with ABA services delivered in homes and in schools across St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana. The decision to skip a clinic-based model is intentional: skills learned in the actual kitchen, the actual classroom, and the actual playground are the skills that last.

  • In-home ABA — one-to-one services delivered where your child actually lives, with caregiver coaching built into every visit
  • In-school ABA — collaborative work alongside teachers and paras, supporting kids in the room where the behavior actually happens
  • Family-centered programming — goals chosen with caregivers, not handed down to them
  • Neurodiversity-affirming — assent-based, autonomy-honoring, no compliance-for-its-own-sake
  • Plain-language documentation — you will always understand what we’re working on and why
  • Tight collaboration with schools and outside providers — one team, one plan, one kid

Who this will be for

  • Autistic kids, teens, and young adults whose families want in-home or in-school support
  • Families in St. Tammany Parish — Slidell, Mandeville, Covington, Madisonville, Abita Springs, Pearl River, Lacombe, and surrounding
  • Schools and districts looking for an ABA-trained collaborator inside the classroom
Until ABA services open, here’s what is available now.

Rooted Pathways Behavioral Wellness LLC currently offers Parent & Caregiver Coaching, Schools & Staff Training, Public Service Worker Training, and a free monthly parent class. Coaching is not ABA — it is education and behavior-informed support for the adults around the child — but for many families it is the right support to start with.

About the credential.

Rooted Pathways ABA is being built by Toni Cavey, M.S. (Applied Behavior Analysis). The practice will open in the 2026–2027 window. Until then, all current services on this site are coaching and training — not ABA, not therapy, not clinical treatment.
