Autism Treatment Monmouth County Families Trust and Love Releases Helpful Guide for Parents

 

Lakewood, NJ -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/10/2014 -- Brainbuilders, the therapeutic intervention agency recognized for providing the advanced autism treatment Monmouth County families rely on to improve the lives of children who have been diagnosed with the disease, is pleased to announce that they have released a helpful guide to assist parents in determining whether or not their child has autism.

Autism affects one in 49 children in New Jersey. Signs that a child may have autism include no babbling by 12 months, no pointing or gesturing by 12 months, no single words by 16 months, no two word phrases by 24 months, the loss of previously acquired skills (especially language) and other unusual behaviors including restrictive, repetitive actions, interests and activities.

Children with autism may, for example, play only with one toy and engage in peculiar, sustained play activities such as spinning the wheels of a toy car instead of pretending to drive it, or dangling an object in front of their eyes for long periods of time. Some children with autism watch the same video repeatedly or focus intensely on a particular topic such as dinosaurs or vacuum cleaners, to the exclusion of any other interests. Individuals with autism can be very reliant on specific routines and may be so resistant to change that even a minor aberration in their daily routine causes them to become extremely upset.

Brainbuilders provides access to the resources and services necessary to successfully treat autism and help improve the quality of life for both patients and their families. The experienced staff at autism therapy NJ specialist Brainbuilders consists of doctoral and master’s level supervisors and trained behavioral analysts specializing in administering the principles of applied behavioral analysis, licensed occupational therapy, speech pathology, social work and floortime.

In order to administer the most effective treatment possible and as a convenience to patients and families, Brainbuilders proudly provides their services in a variety of environments, including inside the home as well as at educational facilities, private institutions and other locations.

Brainbuilders is home to the outstanding autism treatment New Jersey families have come to trust and love throughout the years. Anyone who would like to learn more about the resources and services available at Brainbuilders is encouraged to visit the website or contact the staff directly.
