NDBI Infant and Toddler and Young Child (0-5)The Infant/Toddler parent training model is for children with an increased likelihood of being autistic, developmentally delayed, or newly diagnosed as autistic ages 5 months to 36 months and focuses on social engagement and building first words.
The 3-5 year old model is tailored to your child's needs and primarily focuses on teaching your child social communication skills (e.g., phrase speech, answering and asking questions, social conversation) and self-advocacy. The NDBI model combined with Functional Communication Training (FCT) can also help children learn how to replace dysregulated behavior with self-advocacy requests for things to be a particular way, as well as increase a child's ability to wait for access to their requested items or activities. All NDBI models focus on teaching caregivers the skills to faciliate these strategies in the child's natural environment. Virtual or in person parent training with or without the child present. |
Feeding TherapyThis parent training service is for young toddlers to elementary school aged children that have selective or restrictive feeding. A SPACE and NDBI based approach is used to increase and expand a child's diet in order to improve nutrition and overall functioning. Parent training with or without the child present.
For Middle to High School age a primarily SPACE-ARFID approach is taken, which is virtual and parent only. |
