Autism Treatment

Scientists have been trying hard to look for the cause of ASD but they have only find correlations, in other words, risk factors. Although there is no cure for ASD, but research has shown that applied behavior analysis (ABA) can effectively increase social, language, and life skills. And the golden period for treatment is between 2 to 6 years old.

The queue for assessment from governmental services is 1 to 2 years with longer waiting time for younger children. It is highly possible that a child may miss the golden period for treatment by the time he/she gets the assessment result. Even if your child does not have the assessment result yet, you should start intervention to deal with his or her behavioral problems and avoid any delay in treatment.

The Role of Parents and Families in Autism Treatment

The Role Of The Key Person

The Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) mandates a key person for each child to foster a strong relationship with the child and their family. This supports emotional well-being, settling, and learning, especially for children with special educational needs (SEN) and disabilities, as recognized in the Code of Practice. 

Developing a bond with a child

A strong key person relationship is based on a child bonding with a practitioner, which takes time, especially for those who haven’t been separated or had unsettled separations. Gathering information from parents about a child’s temperament, interests, and experiences helps respond and build trust. It is crucial to establish a bond before any separation to prevent separation anxiety and allow for relationship formation.
