The Heart of Our Mission: Meet the Team That Makes a Difference
At Autism From The Start, we believe that the key to meaningful progress isn’t just a strong curriculum or effective therapy techniques—it’s the people behind the work. Our team is more than just a group of professionals; we are dedicated mentors, compassionate caregivers, and trusted partners in each child’s journey.
From our therapists and behavior analysts to our support staff, every person on our team plays a crucial role in helping children grow, learn, and thrive. The work we do is built on relationships, trust, and a deep commitment to the families we serve.
A Team That Puts Children First
Every child who walks through our doors is met with warmth, encouragement, and understanding. We know that for children with autism, having a predictable, supportive, and engaging environment makes all the difference. That’s why we prioritize:
Building connections – Each child is paired with therapists and staff who get to know them personally, understanding their strengths, challenges, and unique needs.
Creating a safe space – Children thrive when they feel comfortable and supported. We work to ensure that every session feels like a natural, engaging experience rather than a rigid lesson.
Encouraging trust – Progress happens when children feel confident in their surroundings and relationships. Our team is here to support, listen, and celebrate every achievement—big or small.
Why Relationships Matter in Therapy
Therapy isn’t just about teaching skills; it’s about empowering children to feel confident, independent, and understood. We’ve seen firsthand how strong, trusting relationships between therapists, children, and families lead to incredible progress and breakthroughs.
When a child feels safe, they are more willing to try new things.
When a therapist understands a child’s personality, they can tailor learning experiences to make them more effective.
When a family feels supported, they can reinforce growth at home, creating consistency for their child.
We believe that therapy is a team effort, and that’s why our staff goes above and beyond to collaborate, communicate, and form meaningful connections with both children and their families.
A Diverse Team with a Shared Passion
Our team comes from a wide range of backgrounds, specialties, and experiences, but we all share one thing in common: a passion for helping children reach their full potential.
Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) – Specialists in behavior therapy, focusing on individualized interventions that support skill development and positive behaviors.
Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) – Hands-on guides who work closely with children every day, bringing therapy to life through structured learning and play.
Speech and Language Specialists – Helping children find their voices, whether through verbal speech, nonverbal communication tools, or social language skills.
Occupational Therapists – Supporting children in developing the motor skills, sensory processing, and daily living abilities they need to thrive.
Administrative and Support Staff – The behind-the-scenes team that keeps everything running smoothly, ensuring families have the resources and information they need.
Each member of our team brings a unique perspective and expertise, but together, we form a strong, united support system for the children and families we serve.
The Impact of a Dedicated Team
At Autism From The Start, we don’t just see children as clients—we see them as part of our extended family. We celebrate their victories, advocate for their needs, and work tirelessly to create a space where they feel safe, valued, and excited to learn.
The results speak for themselves:
Children who enter feeling hesitant grow into confident, engaged learners.
Families who come to us seeking guidance leave with strong support systems and renewed hope.
Therapists who start their careers with us find lifelong passion and fulfillment in the work they do.
