Friendship Educational & Therapeutic Services
Caring ABA Therapy and Educational Support for Children with Autism
Friendship ABA has grown into FEATS: Friendship Educational and Therapeutic Services. We still provide the high-quality ABA therapy families have trusted us for, and now we offer so much more.
FEATS combines ABA therapy with educational and IEP-aligned services, giving children a true full-day or half-day program that supports both therapeutic and academic growth.
Whether your child is preschool-age or school-age, FEATS is built to support them for the whole day, not just a therapy session.
Located in Pepper Pike at Friendship Circle's engaging center, we accept most insurances, including Medicaid, and are an Ohio Autism Scholarship provider.

Personalized Support Plans
Each plan combines direct teaching and family involvement to create meaningful progress.
One-to-one services: Focused teaching sessions built around communication, play, and life skills.
Ongoing BCBA Supervision: Continuous oversight to ensure programs remain effective and individualized.
Treatment Planning & Program Adaptation: Regular updates to keep goals relevant and challenging as your child grows
Family Support & Parent Coaching: Training caregivers in the same strategies used during sessions, so skills carry over at home and in the community.
Integrated Socialization
FEATS also provides social growth through real play with other children thanks to integration with Friendship Circle programs.
Through this integration families gain more than therapy, they gain community. Friendship Circle offers social programs, camps, holiday celebrations and ongoing support into adulthood. That means your child doesn’t “age out” of support, they grow within a community that knows them, values them, and continues to support them as they enter school and beyond.
