Behavioral Therapies
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and Positive Behavior Support (PBS) employ evidence-based strategies to teach desired behaviors and reduce challenging ones, while social skills training targets autism by enhancing communication, social interaction, and daily life abilities.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational Therapy (OT) addresses daily living skills, fine motor abilities, and sensory processing to enhance independence for individuals with autism. Sensory Integration Therapy targets sensory challenges, aiding in self-regulation and participation in daily activities.
Speech and Language
Speech therapy and AAC support communication development for autism by addressing verbal and nonverbal skills, articulation, and comprehension, offering alternative means for expression through tools like picture boards and communication apps when verbal communication is limited.
Treatment for autism typically involves a combination of therapies and interventions tailored to address the specific needs and challenges of each individual. While there is no cure for autism, early intervention and ongoing support can help individuals with autism lead fulfilling lives and reach their full potential.
UDGAM - A Mental Health Care and Rehabilitation Centre - Indirapuram
At Udgam Clinic, we encourage our patients to get their child tested as early as possible for ASD. While the diagnosis can be officially made when a child is 3 years and above, an early intervention provides a better prognosis. We employ trained therapists and rehabilitation professionals, to provide the best care possible.
Remember that early recognition and intervention are key to providing the best possible outcomes for children with ASD. Families, healthcare professionals, educators, and the community play vital roles in supporting children with ASD to reach their full potential and lead meaningful lives.
