Nearly every question I receive from parents or professionals boils down to one of two questions:
Whether it’s getting a child to stop hitting, biting, or stimming, or it’s teaching a child to get dressed, sleep in their own bed, or eat properly, parents and professionals wrestle with these two questions daily. The answers to these questions will always start with an autism assessment.
Before you can begin to address these concerns, you need to understand where the child is at developmentally. That’s why I provide a full chapter on autism assessment in my newest book Turn Autism Around: An Action Guide for Parents of Young Children with Early Signs of Autism. I know that it can be discouraging to see where a child is at and to realize that they’re behind.
Children who struggle to speak will have other problems, and the questions are designed to uncover the variety of problems a child may have so that parents and professionals can move forward with a solid understanding of how to help a child learn.
The first two pieces in an autism assessment are the child’s age and the child’s general ability level. Once you know that, you can move onto the 4 parts of the Turn Autism Around Approach which are:
The plan for a ten-year-old child with the ability of a two-year-old will look very different from a three-year-old with the general ability level of a one-year-old, so understanding where the child is at can help you see where to go next. This step-by-step autism assessment sets out a clear and concise path for parents and professionals to see where progress can be made, and it also gives them the opportunity to recognize where a child is succeeding or even thriving.
My newest book is full of techniques, strategies, and assessments that can help parents who are waiting for an autism diagnosis, or are waiting for therapy services and are ready to start helping their child today.
