Positive Development: A new choice in autism therapy Your child doesn’t just get a therapist. Your family gets a team. How we are different: Highly Effective - Through building more natural connections, children achieve greater growth, independence, and joy. Families also benefit from greater confidence knowing they’ve helped their child achieve lasting developmental improvements. Parent Training - Our therapists give you coaching to include developmental techniques as a natural part of everyday living. This means fewer hours in 1:1 therapy and more time growing together as a family with every interaction. Based on Play - Therapy sessions are based on play, but don’t let that fool you. There’s science behind it. Because sessions are fun, it increases the child’s motivation and results in positive, lasting developmental changes. Please note: We’re committed to evidence-supported Developmental Relationship Based Interventions (DRBI), not behavioral-based approaches. *Stanley is exclusively for Positive Development Families
