Your autistic clients don’t need you to extinguish their behaviors, instead they need your help with difficulties with relating and communicating. Watch autism expert and co-author, Gil Tippy, PsyD, as he guides you through the foundations and principles of a powerful yet tremendously cost-effective evidenced-based developmental model, DIR/Floortime®.
This effective intervention will help you understand your autistic clients’ unique individual profile (sensory-motor, social-emotional-communication, language) and address the biological challenges that may be hindering developmental process.
At the end of this 90-minute session, you’ll be able to implement the basics of DIR/Floortime® to address your clients’ core deficits while strengthening their core capacities of relating, communicating, and thinking. This recording will follow the DIR/Floortime® model, so it’ll be engaging, joyful and effective!
