Our Approach
At Monarch House, we believe in evidence-based therapy. All service is based on best practices and a family-centred approach; this means you are involved in every decision in your child’s unique service and support plan.
At Monarch House, we improve access to required autism services in Burnaby, coordinate treatment, and focus on results for individuals of all abilities, understanding and responding to their changing needs throughout their lives.
Our Board-Certified Behaviour Analysts®, speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, and mental health professionals work collaboratively to deliver evidence-based support and services in our centres, your home, or your child's school. We collaborate with each individual and specifically tailor services to their needs.
The earlier the intervention, the better
The earlier your child capitalizes on their brain’s plasticity, the more skills and pathways they develop for building essential skills like communication, social skills, and adaptive behaviours - all crucial for later success.
Studies consistently show that children who receive early intervention have better developmental outcomes, including improved language, social skills, and academic performance. They are also more likely to gain independence and lead fulfilling lives.
Conversely, the longer your child goes without focused support, the more likely they are to experience regression in skills they've already acquired. As a leading early intervention autism service provider, Monarch House Burnaby helps your child maintain and build upon their existing strengths, and it allows the entire family to engage and learn the ideal approaches so your child thrives as they mature.

Location friendly
Monarch House Burnaby was built with families in mind. The Centre is easily accessible—steps from the Brentwood skytrain stop, with adjacent amenities such as grocery shopping, coffee shops, fast food, and pampering services with nearby nail salons.
Our Burquitlam centre is conveniently located beside Lougheed Mall in Northgate Village.
The surrounding amenities at both locations also provide a great way for us to practice community life skills with older teens such as taking public transit, ordering at a restaurant and shopping.
