Interventions


EarlySteps - Louisiana's early intervention program for babies 0-3 with a developmental delay or a diagnosed medical condition with a high probability of resulting in a developmental delay.  They provide various services such as: speech therapy, occupational therapy, social work, assistive technology, audiology and others, if eligible.  For a list of other early intervention resources click here. 

The National Institute of Mental Health and the Autism Society of America suggest a list of questions parents can ask when planning treatments for their child.

There are many different types of treatments available.  For example, auditory training, discrete trial training, vitamin therapy, anti-yeast therapy, facilitated communication, music therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and sensory integration.  

The different types of treatments can generally be broken down into the following categories:

  • Behavior and Communication Approaches 
  • Dietary Approaches
