PHOENIX, AZ, September 17, 2025 – Centria Autism (Centria), a leading national provider of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy, has opened a new Life Skills Autism Academy (LSAA) location in Phoenix, Ariz – its second Phoenix-based center to open this month.
Centria places an emphasis on early intervention with its LSAA centers, providing high-intensive, specialized ABA therapy to children with autism who are five years old and younger.
“The need for autism services continues to grow in Arizona,” said Timothy Yeager, Chief Clinical Officer at Centria Autism. “Opening another Phoenix center allows us to meet more families where they are and provide early intervention ABA therapy that builds the foundation for lifelong skills and greater independence.”
The 10,160 square-foot center at 7236 S Central Ave opened September 17 and is currently welcoming new clients. This center is Centria’s fifth in Phoenix and 15th in Arizona, joining other Life Skills Autism Academy locations in Mesa, Glendale, Tucson and Tempe. Centria’s other Phoenix location opened at 3310 N 19th Ave on September 3.
Centria centers offer individualized treatment plans from a team of Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Behavior Technicians, prioritizing the development of everyday skills and social behaviors that will allow children with autism to thrive in school, at home and in their communities.
According to the CDC, one in every 31 kids is diagnosed with autism – illuminating an increasing need for quality behavioral therapy across the board. Centria is continuing to honor its commitment to supporting those on the spectrum with centers in Arizona, Indiana, Georgia, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, North Carolina, New Mexico, Oregon, Texas and Virginia.
