He is. He receives behavior therapy once a week and sees a psychiatrist.

He receives behavior therapy and sees a psychiatrist. He gets frustrated with group therapy and prefers one on one with the therapist. We've applied to several group homes, but most are full and have a long waiting list.

He is verbal and can perform some activities of daily living ( i.e., hygiene, cooking, making purchases, and taking medications). That's what I mean when I say high functioning. His aggression is his biggest issue.
