An Autism agency with real solutions and lasting outcomes

We know families impacted by a diagnosis of Autism often feel that the process of getting help can be overwhelming and even confusing. We are here to help you and your family understand, grow, and feel empowered to take on your child’s care needs.

Our exceptionally trained Board Certified Behaviour Analysts (BCBA) use Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to give you and your family a 1-to-1, evidenced-based, meaningful approach to your child’s development with lasting outcomes. Whether it is challenging behaviour, communication, self-help, or social skills, our staff are here to support you.

No one else was wanting to/ able to help. You got us through the start of this scary journey, and we already feel so much more confident! Once we get funding, however long that takes, I will absolutely be reaching out again as you ladies really came through when we felt at our lowest.

I have loved our experience with Northern Star Behaviour Services thus far! As my family is located in Grande Prairie, I knew that many of our appointments would be supplemented with video calls, and I was slightly nervous about the quality of these online sessions. But I am glad to say that our provider is extremely observant and truly makes the most out of both in person and online appointments! They have provided us with many useful tools to make not just my son's life easier, but my own as well. The team at Northern Star is amazing and so easy to work with; I am so thankful for them.

We had been struggling for the past few years trying to help our autistic son develop language skills. We tried multiple different programs – on the recommendation of specialists – but none of them took. But that all changed in October 2021 when we were introduced to Northern Star Behaviour Services and they graced us with our consultant. Now, only five short months later, he has taken to the PECs system incredibly quickly. He is engaged far more and is actually participating in school activities with his peers and making friends! Such a night and day difference – it truly was nothing short of miraculous.

Our family hired Northern Star to help with sleep issues with our Autistic son. One meeting and I knew they would be able to help. Northern Star had a plan for us within hours and monitored things with us for weeks. I would highly recommend them for anyone wanting to change their child’s behaviour.
