[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 580469, member: 11847"] Ok, I didnot want to break any board rules, but here it is: V was diagnosis by TEACCH and is on the waiting list for private session. They are also the ones training the teachers in Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) at V's school. Yes, they are VERY reputable but not that easy to access. It is more of a consulting service. AT leas t, that is my understanding of it so far. It took 8 months for V to be evaluated and he has now been on their sessions waiting list since December... They are available on the phone though. I just feel a lot of his anxiety is triggered by a less than perfect school environment. I have good communication with the school but the bottom line: he is not learning as he should and V knows it. Having an anxiety attack over the /g/ sound is not normal. I just don't want to accept it as something bound to happen. I feel that if he was in an environment designed for his challenges, V would just blossom. He is such a hard worker and he wants to learn. Those are amazing skills for a 5 year old little boy. There has to be a school that can channel those skills in order to compensate for the deficits. V will require a lot of 1:1 teaching if we want him to succeed, a lot of concrete and diversified experiences. [/QUOTE]
