Finding Materials for Therapy

Posted under: Family

There are many good reasons to find materials for therapy around the house or create them on your own. Such materials save money and are more likely to be relevant to your individual child. At the same time, finding and making materials can be time consuming and so it can also be helpful to draw upon materials that others have already created.

Following are a few of the sites that have been helpful to many families searching for therapy materials.

I am currently an intern who has a client with Aspergers D/O. I am looking for the latest and most successful interventions for executing within our outpatient therapy sessions. Please advise on what you recommend would be the sites or locations to retrieve this information. thanx.

If you click on “Links” at the bottom of this webpage, you will be taken to a list of a number of helpful websites. I think you’ll find the websites listed under “Information For Parents of a Newly Diagnosed Child” of particular interest. My favorite site is the Associate for Science in Autism Treatment and its evaluation of different treatments for children on the autism spectrum (http://www.asatonline.org/intervention/autismtreatments.htm). If you were hoping for some other type of information, let me know.
