Blossom Children’s Center specializes in early intervention for children with autism spectrum disorder and other special needs. At our children’s autism clinic in Brighton, MI we use a comprehensive approach rooted in behavioral and developmental techniques that incorporate real-world experiences to prepare your child for life beyond our clinic.
The Blossom Method
As an interdisciplinary team, we bring together professionals from a variety of disciplines to fulfill all of your child and family’s wellness needs. The Blossom Team, at our children’s special needs clinic in Brighton, MI, values the fundamental role of family in their child’s development and we are dedicated to providing each family with individualized support and training.
Our specialized interdisciplinary approach utilizes the following services:
- Applied behavior analysis (ABA Therapy)
- Counseling and support services
- Occupational therapy
- Speech and language pathology (SLP)
- Art Therapy
We believe that to see maximum potential and progress in your child’s therapy program, three evidence-based approaches are necessary:
- The Early Start Denver Model (ESDM)
- Pivotal Response Training (PRT)
- Direction Instruction (DI)
All three are proven approaches to therapy with children with autism and other special needs. We believe incorporating these approaches is what sets Blossom apart as the preferred children’s center for autism in the Brighton, MI area.

Brighton’s Home for ABA Therapy
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy is a widely-used, evidence-based approach to understanding and improving human behavior, particularly for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities. ABA therapy focuses on the principles of learning theory to systematically modify socially significant behaviors.
In ABA therapy, therapists work closely with individuals to identify and assess problem behaviors, establish clear goals, and develop personalized interventions. The approach is based on the understanding that consequences and environmental factors influence behavior.
By modifying these factors, therapists can encourage positive behaviors and discourage negative ones.
Blossom is proud to offer two types of ABA Therapy programming at our autism center for children in Brighton, MI and the surrounding areas: early intervention and preschool programming. Let’s take a look at each now.
