“What you need to keep consistent in your child’s program is the ‘therapy style’ or the way that you and your therapists interact with your child when you are working on these goals.” – I totally agree with your point! Autistic child doesn’t have the capability to adapt with sudden changes. So it’s really important to have a consistent therapy style to ensure optimum results.

This was an interesting read. We do a lot of working with aspiring therapists and students. It’s helpful to see things from the perspectives of the parents.

Best Wishes

Hello
many families break up when they have the stress of a child with a disability.
In Australia you can access up to 20 visits a year of psychology through your family doctor using a mental health care plan so that you can go to a psychologist who specialises in working with children and youth. They are wonderful people and would be a great help as they have been to the families I support. best of luck Gayle

Hello Monique

I’ve got a child who had been very depressed and can’t deal with it. I’ve been looking for a child therapist to help me but I can’t search for one who could be capable. I’ve run to this blog and red it. Through depression her behavior affect it’s depression. The depression is due to our broken family.

She is affected with our break ups of her dad. What could be the be the best thing to do?

Dear Monique,

We are really grateful to you for free suggestions which are very helpful to us to realize autism as well as our child. So please continue.
If you discuss about convulsion causes and how to check whether our child may have convulsion in future or not then it will be very helpful.

Another question is about food habit, constipation and toilet problem?

Thanking you,
Sanjoy Chatterjee

my son therapy team working collaboratively. he had an O.T but no speech pathology because we don’t have any speech pat in our place. So we get a Sped Teacher who can handle my son. I wish i can get a Home program for my son. But they talk every time and and share what to do. I wish we can have speech pat here. thanks monique for you moral support.
