b.e.st. Autism Therapy

brisbane early stages (b.e.st) autism therapy is a leading therapy practice providing in-home, naturalistic therapy for autistic children. established in 2002, we offer neurodiversity-affirming speech pathology and occupational therapy for autistic children that goes beyond standardized assessments which often only recognize client “deficits".” our approach is to focus on the client’s abilities, highlight strengths, and make recommendations that foster communication growth, self-regulation, and independence. we are committed to family centred practice as we work in partnership with families to establish goals which suit their values and priorities for their child. we recognize that the family’s expertise in understanding the unique profile of their child. we believe in culturally responsive practice which respects diversity and is responsive to each family’s strengths and cultural differences.
