​About Mighty Kidz Services

Mighty Kidz Services of the Carolinas is a trauma-assumed, inclusive therapy provider dedicated to helping neurodivergent children grow, connect, and thrive. We specialize in assent-based Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and speech therapy (SC), offering compassionate care that prioritizes the dignity, safety, and individuality of every child.

​

We believe that when kidz are supported with empathy and respect, they become their mightiest selves—capable, confident, and connected to their communities.

​

Our Approach: Compassionate, Whole-Child Centered Care

All MKS programs are grounded in a compassionate care model. Our goal is to support children as they move toward less restrictive settings, fully equipped to meet life’s challenges with confidence and resilience.

We break through barriers by:

• Using trauma-responsive, neurodiversity-affirming practices

• Centering each child’s voice and choices through assent-based therapy

• Focusing on connection over compliance and relationships over routines

• Creating fun, supportive, and inclusive environments where kidz feel safe to explore and grow

Our Services Include:

 School & Community Services
