ABA Therapy in NM
ABA therapy across New Mexico
BrightBridge ABA delivers New Mexico families the same rigorous, BCBA-led ABA therapy our North Carolina families know us for — tailored to New Mexico’s Turquoise Care system, FIT early-intervention pathways, and local school-district realities.
Our New Mexico clinical team is led by Laura Cutshall, M.S., BCBA — who oversees every NM program personally. That means direct accountability for clinical quality, not a distant corporate supervisor.
We’re in-network with the Turquoise Care MCOs — BCBS of New Mexico, Molina Healthcare of New Mexico, and Presbyterian Health Plan — plus commercial coverage through Molina and Presbyterian. Services are offered in-home and via telehealth statewide, with concentrated coverage in Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Rio Rancho, and Las Cruces.
We accept most major insurances,
including Medicaid.

New Mexico ABA therapy FAQs
Yes. New Mexico Medicaid — delivered through Turquoise Care — covers medically necessary ABA therapy for children with an autism spectrum disorder diagnosis. We're in-network with the Turquoise Care MCOs (BCBSNM, Molina, Presbyterian), and we handle insurance verification during intake.
We serve families across Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Rio Rancho, and Las Cruces, and we expand into neighboring communities when staffing allows. Services are delivered in-home or via telehealth depending on your family's needs. If you're outside those metros, reach out — we'll be straight with you about whether we can serve you.
Our New Mexico clinical team is led by Laura Cutshall, M.S., BCBA. Laura oversees every NM program and supervises the BCBAs and RBTs working directly with your family.
The clinical model is identical — evidence-based, BCBA-supervised, individualized. What differs is the administrative landscape: New Mexico uses Turquoise Care MCOs for Medicaid and ties early intervention into the FIT program. Our NM team is built around these state-specific requirements.
Yes. New Mexico Medicaid and commercial insurance require a documented autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnosis from a qualified diagnostic provider before ABA therapy is authorized. If your child doesn't have a diagnosis yet, we can help you identify diagnosticians in your area.
