🧩 Empowering Families, One Breakthrough at a Time

Kuska Autism Services has been a trusted support for families for the past four years—and now, they’ve brought their compassionate care to a brand new home right here in Bountiful. This locally owned ABA therapy provider is doing something truly special for our community, helping individuals with autism and developmental delays grow in confidence, communication, and independence.

Led by owner James Stubbs, Kuska takes a deeply personal and collaborative approach to care. Their team of skilled professionals doesn’t just deliver direct therapy—they work side by side with parents, educators, and the community to create tailored treatment plans built around each child’s unique needs. Every strategy is grounded in proven methodologies and a heart for service.

But what really sets Kuska apart is the feeling you get the moment you walk through the doors of their new Bountiful space at 95 E 2200 S. It’s not just a clinic—it’s a place of encouragement, understanding, and real progress.
