In-Home ABA Therapy in Plainfield, CT
All four villages, two BCBAs, no clinic commute.
Plainfield is really four villages, Plainfield, Moosup, Wauregan, and Central Village, and families in each of them tell us the same thing: the nearest ABA centers are a real drive and the in-home agencies’ maps stop short of Windham County. Oak & Arrow is based in Griswold, fifteen minutes down Route 12. Plainfield isn’t the edge of our radius; it’s the middle of it.
Services designed and led by Oak & Arrow’s Board Certified Behavior Analysts: Paige Tully, BCBA #1-20-44228, CT license BA.001021, and Tiffany Salvatore, BCBA #1-25-81796, CT license BA.001840. Both came to behavior analysis from the classroom. Between them, our two BCBAs spent years teaching in eastern Connecticut schools, and Plainfield’s self-contained K-12 district is the kind of setup that makes home-and-school planning actually work.
Getting started in Plainfield
Oak & Arrow is based in Griswold, so Plainfield is about 12 to 15 minutes away and among the easiest towns on our calendar. After-school and early-evening sessions are realistic here, and first appointments here typically schedule fastest.
Serving Plainfield
Plainfield Public Schools run Plainfield Memorial, Moosup Elementary, and Shepard Hill Elementary into Plainfield Central Middle and Plainfield High, so unlike many small towns nearby, a Plainfield child’s whole K-12 team is in-district, which makes school collaboration cleaner; the district’s special education office is the front door. Moosup Pond and the Moosup Valley State Park Trail are usable settings for community-based work, and the village layout means most practice destinations, the store, the library, the park, are a five-minute drive from any home in town. The Plainfield Family Resource Center, run with Plainfield Public Schools, holds registration-based Play and Learn groups at Shepard Hill and Music and Movement sessions for young children with a parent, a structured way to practice joining a group before preschool.
What Plainfield families
ask about most
As the largest Home Base town, Plainfield sends the full range: social skills for school-age kids, functional communication for the littlest ones, and executive functioning for the middle-school transition. School collaboration comes up often because the district is self-contained.
Social Skills
Taking turns, reading the room, making and keeping friends. Practiced in real settings, because that’s where friendships actually happen.
Functional Communication
Helping your child ask for what they need, in words, signs, or pictures. For many kids this is where everything else starts.
Behavior Support
Aggression, bolting, transitions that run the house. Every behavior is doing a job for your child. We find the job, then teach a safer, easier way to get it done.
Executive Functioning
Routines, transitions, starting and finishing things. The skills that make school days and mornings work.
Daily Living Skills
Dressing, brushing teeth, washing hands, cleaning up. Everyday routines, taught step by step until your child can run them on their own.
Parent Collaboration
You’re part of every session, because the plan only works if it keeps working after I leave. Teaching you is part of the job.
Something else going on?
Most of what families bring me doesn’t fit neatly in a box, and the assessment is where we find out what actually helps.

All of them. Moosup, Wauregan, Central Village, and Plainfield proper are one drive from Griswold.
With your consent, yes. Having elementary through high school in one district makes that easier here than almost anywhere we work.
