The Autism & Low-Incidence Coaching Team

Research opportunity for families

Research opportunity for families of children 7 or younger with an autism diagnosis!

We are so excited to be newly merged with our friends on the Integrated Support Services Team!
Expanded team 💪 = expanded services for districts 📋 = expanded impact on staff and students 🧡💙🩵💛

To kick off the year, we are featuring our pre-recorded SpEd Hacks webinars that can be viewed at your leisure. These sessions are about 75 minutes in length and focus on the following topics:
🧑‍🏫Classroom Layout and Environment
🤝 Team Building with Paraprofessionals
🗓️ Scheduling
📚 Planning for Instruction

They are a great fit for new or veteran teachers in a self-contained or cross-categorical classroom looking to get a handle on classroom organization and procedures to start the year off right!

Neurodevelopmental and Behavioral Psychology (NDBP) specializes in:
• Supporting individuals with developmental disabilities and their families
• Services are available for children and adolescents up to age 18

New and existing patients can now schedule a 45-minute virtual consult appointment with the next available NDBP Psychologist to discuss specific behavioral interventions for one targeted behavior.

Telehealth consults use video and audio and are accessible on any smartphone, computer, or tablet.

We are here to provide information on common behavior concerns, including:
• Temper tantrums or behavioral problems
• Increased anxiety
• Sleep difficulties
• Toileting concerns
• Mealtime behaviors
• Noncompliance at home
• Improving coping skills

To schedule, call 513-803-1600 to speak to the
Scheduling Team. We make every effort to schedule consult requests within 1 week.

Please Note: Insurance pre-authorization may not be available prior to
your appointment. Please consult your insurance company if you have questions regarding psychology billing coverage. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept Indiana and Kentucky Medicaid at this time.

Behavior Consults are not a crisis hotline. If your child is in crisis or there are concerns for safety, please call the CCHMC Pediatric Intake Response Center at 513-636-4124 for further guidance.
