An essential resource for parents and professionals

Engaging Autism provides clear, practical information on how parents, therapists, and other caregivers can use the DIR/Floortime Approach to help children with autism spectrum disorders. As a pediatric OT and author of a book on sensory integration issues, I really appreciate Dr. Greenspan's explanations of sensory modulation difficulties and sensory and emotional overload and how these problems interfere with development. He examines a few of the many challenges posed by sensory issues, such as potty training and mealtime, and offers some good strategies, including working with a knowledgeable occupational therapist. This excellent resource helps parents start asking the right questions about what approach to use to help the child with ASD, provides useful advice on handling everyday problems, and offers current brain research and efficacy studies about the DIR/Floortime approach.

Kids of all ages can achieve against previously-held odds against them

The Floortime approach is the foundation of understanding how kids relate and communicate --and the basis for engaging all types of ASD, from Asperger's Syndrome to autistic kids. The approach is Dr. Greenspan's unique creation so there's no better expert on the subject as he offers parents and pros an option for using the Floortime program to realize a child's complete potential regardless of symptoms. The latest brain research supports his program, which shows that kids of all ages can achieve against previously-held odds against them.
