(May 27, 2026) – Cultivate Behavioral Health & Education is excited to announce its expansion into Missouri with the opening of a new ABA therapy clinic in Kansas City, increasing access to high-quality ABA therapy services for families throughout the Kansas City metropolitan area and surrounding communities.
The new clinic located at 7280 NW 87th Terrace, Ste 208, Kansas City, MO, marks Cultivate’s first location in Missouri and expands the organization’s presence within the greater Kansas City region, where Cultivate currently operates an ABA therapy clinic in Overland Park.
Applied Behavior Analysis, commonly known as ABA therapy, is a research-backed approach designed to help children with developmental disabilities, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), develop important communication, social, behavioral, play, and daily living skills. ABA therapy programs are tailored to each child’s unique strengths and needs and are supervised by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs). Through early intervention and individualized support, ABA therapy can help autistic children strengthen communication and language development, improve social interaction and peer engagement, build greater independence with daily living routines, and develop important emotional regulation, coping, and school readiness skills.
Cultivate’s new Kansas City ABA clinic was thoughtfully designed to create a supportive, engaging, and child-focused environment where children can build meaningful skills through individualized, evidence-based therapy. The clinic will provide families with access to center-based ABA therapy services designed to support progress both inside and outside of therapy sessions.
The new center will be under the leadership of Clinical Manager, Sydney Skibell, BCBA. Sydney shared her excitement about expanding services within the local community saying, “I am excited for the opportunity to provide ABA services to a new community. By expanding our centers, we are able to increase our ability to provide services that benefit individuals and their families. I am excited to see the growth of this center and cannot wait to see what the future holds.”
The opening of the Kansas City clinic reflects Cultivate’s continued commitment to expanding access to high-quality ABA services across the communities it serves while helping children and families reach meaningful goals through evidence-based care and family collaboration.
“This expansion represents an important step in increasing access to high-quality autism services for families throughout the Kansas City area,” said Mike Foulk, Chief Operating Officer at Cultivate Behavioral Health & Education. “We’re excited to continue growing within this community and provide compassionate, individualized ABA therapy services that support children and families throughout their journey.”
