Diagnostic Assessments
Comprehensive evaluations for autism spectrum disorder and developmental disabilities include clinical interviews, standardized testing, and multi-source observations. The process involves families, schools, and treatment teams to ensure accurate diagnoses and tailored educational programming recommendations. Assessments inform individualized intervention plans aligned with each child's unique needs.
Behavioral Treatment
Evidence-based interventions focus on teaching emotion regulation and behavior management skills through cognitive-behavioral and neuro-developmental approaches. Treatment plans address home, school, and community functioning with strategies proven effective through empirical research. Goals emphasize improving social-emotional and academic outcomes for children and families.
School Consultation
Collaborative consultation services help schools develop effective IEP goals, implement behavior plans, and enhance student engagement. I work with educators to create structured learning environments and provide staff training on supporting students with autism and developmental disorders across classroom settings.
Parent Education
Parent-focused sessions teach behavior management techniques and home-based intervention strategies. The program emphasizes practical skills for addressing daily challenges while fostering family understanding of developmental disorders and evidence-based support methods.
Professional Workshops
Workshops cover autism intervention strategies, educational accommodations, and behavior management techniques for educators, healthcare providers, and community organizations. With 20+ years of experience, I deliver practical, research-backed training tailored to professional audiences' specific needs and contexts.
