Occupational TherapyOccupational therapy services for children who have a diagnosis of autism are focused on the family and child’s priorities.

Sequential Oral Sensory (SOS) Feeding and ASD: Children with a diagnosis of autism may experience sensory aversions to food textures, smells, and/or tastes. These difficulties can lead to a very limited diet, impacting overall nutrition and intake. Some children may become extremely rigid in their feeding patterns, eating only specific foods prepared in very specific ways. A child may eat a certain preferred food for some time and then will no longer eat that previously preferred food. This pattern of eating only very specific foods and then dropping those foods from one’s diet is known as “food jagging.” The SOS feeding approach focuses on the use of a sensory based model to teach children and their families ways to interact with food and have positive experiences withfeeding and mealtime.

Children receive immediate feedback about their behavior and positive incentives (e.g. praise, stickers…) are provided to reinforce prosocial behaviors.

Speech TherapySpeech-language therapy helps children with autism improve their verbal, non-verbal and social communication. Each child’s treatment plan is individualized to their specific needs as well as the family’s priorities. Some of the treatment areas that may be addressed include: receptive and expressive language, intelligibility, verbal or non-verbal communication, alternative communication, pragmatic skills, conversational skills, and social skills in order to be able to communicate his/her wants and needs, interact with others and be able to participate in an educational setting.
