Engaging Autism

This is a guide to the ‘Floortime’ approach for treating children with autism spectrum disorders. It includes information on the research of this approach, plus guidance for parents. Floortime promotes the building blocks of healthy emotional and behavioral development and shows that children with ASD do not have a fixed, limited potential, and may often join their peers to lead full, psychologically healthy lives.

“Autism is a complex developmental disorder involving delays in and problems with social interaction, language, and a range of emotional, cognitive, motor, and sensory abilities.”
