Chesapeake, Virginia
CareWorks ABA brings individualized, evidence-based therapy to children and families across Chesapeake, from the busy Greenbrier corridor to the farmland near the Great Dismal Swamp. Our Board Certified Behavior Analysts deliver in-home and community care citywide, with center-based sessions just over the line at our Suffolk location.
Serving a City of Neighborhoods
Autism Care That Fits Chesapeake Families
Chesapeake is one of Virginia’s largest cities by land area, and it changes character as you move through it, from dense, busy neighborhoods in the north to wide-open farmland in the south. A family in Western Branch keeps a different rhythm than one out near Hickory or Fentress, so we build care around your corner of the city rather than asking you to drive across it.
Whether your child was recently diagnosed or has worked with a provider before, Chesapeake families get a thorough assessment, an individualized plan, and one BCBA who owns it from start to finish. Because Chesapeake borders Suffolk, our Suffolk center is right next door whenever a center setting is the better fit.
Board Certified Clinical Team
Every Chesapeake program is designed and overseen by a BCBA with advanced autism training, carried out day to day by credentialed RBTs.
In-Home Across a Large City
Chesapeake covers a lot of ground, so we bring therapy to you and keep your week from revolving around a long commute.
Minutes From Our Suffolk Center
Chesapeake sits right next to Suffolk, so center-based sessions are an easy drive when you want them, with no need to choose one setting for good.
Aligned With Chesapeake Schools
Our clinicians coordinate goals with Chesapeake Public Schools teams so therapy, the classroom, and home all pull in the same direction.
Intentionally Low Caseloads
We limit how many families each BCBA carries so your child gets the steady oversight that keeps progress moving.

The CareWorks Difference
Why Local Families Trust CareWorks
Chesapeake families value being close to real clinical support, and that is exactly what we offer. Our Suffolk center sits right on the city’s doorstep, so families can move between in-home and center-based care without trading away convenience or continuity. One BCBA stays with your child the whole way.
We also know this is a community built around families and schools. Our clinicians coordinate with Chesapeake Public Schools so goals carry across the classroom and home, and we design around the long distances a city this size can involve, keeping therapy steady no matter which neighborhood you call home.
In-Network Coverage
Coverage and Insurance Made Simple
We are in-network with Virginia Medicaid, Tricare, and most major commercial plans, and our team handles benefits verification and authorizations for you. Many Chesapeake families are connected to the region’s military community, and Tricare is among the plans we accept. See full coverage details.
In-Home & Community Therapy
Therapy That Travels to Your Door
In-home therapy is where many Chesapeake families start. Our Registered Behavior Technicians travel to homes from Greenbrier and Western Branch to Great Bridge, Deep Creek, Hickory, and the farms further south, delivering the same BCBA-supervised care you would find in a center, in the place your child is most at ease.
In a city this spread out, skipping the drive matters. It hands that time back to your child for learning and lets your BCBA build goals around your family’s real routines, from the morning rush to dinner. Therapy fits into your family’s day instead of reshaping it around a clinic schedule.
