We arrived to the center ... confused after countless hours of reading online ... immediately after the first call we realized that we had found the best place for us.


We started from a point where our son made very little eye contact, there was no sharing of attention. Play and especially symbolic play was nothing to talk about. After six months of treatment and parenting coaching and training, the improvement was unbelievable! Obviously, we have a long way to go, but with the guidance we receive we are sure we and especially him will get very far J

When you have a child, who is diagnosed on the spectrum, you find yourself in an ongoing jolt, "in a real rollercoaster," .... We met with an amazing occupational therapist using comprehensive, theory-based knowledge, along with trial and error, she modifies the treatment for him and for us so we could understand what is done, what is our child’s experience and apply it at home.... A true, fun, and developing partnership has been created here that allows us to learn more about ourselves and our child so well..... Equally important is the desire and joy of our son to come to the institute
