CONSULTATION/ON-SITE SUPPORT

Our collaboration with educators focuses on increasing the capacity of school personnel to support  student success in all areas: academically, socially, and behaviorally. Services include:

• Individual student consultation to address educational/behavioral challenges

• Modifying instructional and classroom environments

• Conducting Functional Behavior Assessments (FBAs) and creating behavior management systems/intervention plans (BIPs)

• Developing student supports (e.g., visual, organizational) and Individual Education Plan (IEP) goals

• Training staff in the implementation of ABA-based services

 

A detailed report will be provided following each consultation session. In addition, any staff training required to support the implementation of the recommendations can also be provided.

​

EVALUATIONS

We specialize in evaluating individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities to determine levels of cognitive, adaptive behavior, academic and social functioning. A battery of standardized assessment measures will be individualized based on the referral question and need. Psychoeducational evaluations will also include classroom observations and teacher interview(s). 

Evaluations include a final report with recommendations (as needed) and a follow up session to review results.

​

• Understanding and Educating Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder

• Behavior Management Strategies

• Effective Classroom Management Strategies

• Conducting Functional Behavioral Assessments
