Choose Your Journey

Navigating autism can feel like a challenging, stormy day at sea. It can also be a journey of discovery and unexpected joys. It can mean loving more deeply, giving more freely, and living more fully for the moment.

The principles of Relationship Development Intervention (RDI^®), used by JOURNEYS, empowers parents by giving them the tools to navigate autism in a way that honors their role as the primary guide in their child's life. By using a family-centered model for autism intervention, JOURNEYS will empower each family to navigate a journey that is uniquely their own.

Our programs are designed to:

• Help parents feel more competent
• Foster a deeper, more connected, relationship between parent and child
• Enable children to become more flexible and better at coping with anxiety
• Foster your child's desire for cognitive apprenticeship
• Provide your child with a chance to focus on developmental skills that lay the foundation for dynamic thinking
