autism

Those are just a few of the many symptoms of autism, which affects 1 in 59 children in the U.S.

Those with autism tend to struggle in social situations, which can significantly impact school performance and quality of relationships.

Every case of autism is different, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach. There are many types of therapy that can help, such as behavioral therapy, social skills training and occupational therapy.

Our autism therapists at Vista Portland, OR can help your child develop new social skills to gain confidence needed to succeed in life.
