Our Approach

Our multidisciplinary approach to autism intervention integrates expertise and experience from several different and related professional disciplines.

Our team of diagnosticians includes licensed and certified psychologists, educational specialists and pediatric specialists who focus solely on developmental and autism assessments.

Once diagnosed, children can move over to our Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy team, which consists of licensed Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBT) who specialize in the skill development of children with Autism.
