We embrace a relationship based paradigm to address the core deficits of ASD: communication, social interaction, and sensory-behavioral differences. Our approach emphasizes building the foundations of mutual understanding, play and communication, and appreciating the child’s individual differences. It also allows us to meet the family and their child where they are in terms of understanding, development, and interaction. We believe that all learning is the result of interaction with our surroundings and personal motivations; therefore, we work with each child’s intrinsic motivations and interests to expand social, communication and self-regulation skills. By increasing awareness of their child’s individual differences, we educate and empower parents to effect rewarding changes within their families.
