Our Most Frequently Asked Questions

Our Most Frequently Asked Questions

Is Parent Pathways only for parents with a confirmed autism diagnosis for their child?

No, our program is also suitable for parents who are wondering if their child may be autistic or awaiting an evaluation or diagnosis. Our strategies benefit any child with communication or engagement challenges.

Is group coaching as effective as one-on-one sessions?

Group coaching can be highly effective, offering the added benefit of peer support and shared experiences. While it may not provide the same level of individual attention, many parents find the collaborative environment invaluable for learning and emotional support.

What's the difference between parent coaching and BCBA consultation?

Parent coaching focuses on a broader curriculum to enhance your child's overall engagement and communication. BCBA consultation provides more targeted support for specific skills or challenges, designed and overseen by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst.

What do parents have to commit to?

The parent commitment varies depending on the program option you choose, but all options require active participation for the best results. Remember, this program is designed to work with your family's lifestyle. While consistent effort will produce the best results, we understand the challenges of parenting and will work with you to find a balance that's manageable for your family.
