On the following pages I will be providing information on approaches that I feel have the potential to be of benefit for individuals (children, adolescents, and adults), parents, and other care providers.
The focus is on individuals with challenging behaviors like ASD, PDA, ADHD, and other cognitive learning disabilities. Specifically I will focus on approaches that can be of benefit to individuals with difficulties in communicating and relating.

The following sections are works in progress. I will be adding more information as I both review more research in a given area and also develop my ideas for that treatment approach.
Currently the approaches I am recommending are

1. DIR/Floortime
2. Mindfulness
3. Qi Gong

I hope to add Music Therapy in the future as soon as I do a more thorough review of the literature and further develop my thinking in about how to best integrate music into the primary approach that I recommend --DIR/Floortime
