Welcome to Reeta Peshawaria Center

Reeta Peshawaria Center for Autism and ABA Services is an Early Intervention Center for Children with Autism and other Special needs, located in Mallappally and Pathanamthitta. Early intervention is any treatment that happens before the preschool age, when the brain is still developing, resulting in faster, long-lasting outcomes. Our team comprises RCI registered and internationally certified professionals, practicing ABA therapies for skill development and independence. ABA therapy, carried out by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, is the main treatment approach used in our center. We provide ABA based therapies for various interventions, including behavior reduction, speech and language, special education, occupational therapy, sensory integration, home skills, diagnostic and IQ assessments, behavior intervention plans, skill assessments, and daycare facility.
