    "I have successfully been working with children with autism and I have a high success rate of improving children's social and communication skills. I can share many examples where children have said their first words, began imagination play, expressed their needs and desires through my therapy. Some of my techniques include the use of music, action-songs, books, pecs, visuals, expression of feelings, repetition, labelling, highly preferred items, positive feedback and offering choices.

    I have also been able to run social and communications skills support groups for children and parents that have been implemented as best practices amongst many organizations."
