Brain And Body Autism Center               

At Brain And Body Autism Center, we implement the Brain Body Dynamics Model (BBDM) for children on the Autism Spectrum.  BBDM integrates various evidence-based practices into a cohesive framework.  The Brain Body Dynamics Model is an intensive early intervention program, operating five days a week for 2.5 hours each day.  It is administered by a team comprising a speech therapist, occupational therapist, movement teacher, and support staff.  These therapy services are tailored to foster holistic development in each child.

​

BBDM  starts with the premise that 

1. A healthy brain-body connection is critical for maintaining optimal physical and mental health.

2. Autistic children possess at least a near-normal IQ and have a comprehensive understanding of their surroundings.

3. Children on the autism spectrum frequently experience varying degrees of motor planning issues, known as dyspraxia, which hinder verbal expression, real-time response to requests, and consistent performance of learned skills. This can give the false impression that they are not comprehending.

4. Many of their behaviors stem from sensory integration issues and motor planning difficulties.​​​​
