How We Do It
Our interventions assimilate reinforcement-based treatment strategies that have been replicated and refined across decades of applied behavioral research from home, educational, and clinical settings. This research, not the revenue-based model of conventional service delivery, guides our practice. After an initial phone or email conversation and completing our intake questionnaire, we meet with families in their homes to discuss the strategies and procedures we will teach them to achieve their desired outcomes. We then provide the family with intensive in-home training, guiding them as they implement procedures with their child. We typically provide families with around 40 hours of training across 3-5 days, and continue to provide ongoing tele-consultation until they and their child have met their goal and achieved new levels of functional independence.
