autism
My specialty is working with children who are on the autism spectrum. Although this covers many disorders as autism is a spectrum disorder, I am extremely qualified in dealing with behaviors such as aggression and self-stimulatory behaviors, as well as accommodating a number of teaching methods. I am experienced in using curriculums and assessment tools such as the ABLLS, to target a child's needs.
Aspergers
My experience is from working with and teaching children on the autism spectrum for over eight years. This includes Asperger's, autism, PDD and PPD-NOS. I am aware that each disorder shows itself in a different manner and am flexible in learning each individual child. I have completed a great deal of trainings that cover over 100 hours such as the creation and use of social stories, and training in the areas of social skills, PECS, confidentiality and professionalism to name a few. I also have experience hiring and training staff as well as training parents/caregivers and teachers in both the home and school environments. I am familiar with creating behavior plans to target maladaptive behaviors as well as working under the direct supervision of Board Certified Behavior Analysts.
