Welcome! My name is Olga Lukina. I have been a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) since May 2021 and I have worked in the field of Autism for 6 years. Also, I am a Certified Occupational Therapist and I have experience in this field since 2011. My colleagues and I opened a center for children and adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorders that is called “Solis Augšup”. I have been one of the owners since 2018. So, I decided to make the project – podcast “About and Related to ASD” to share and spread the scientifically approved information. @ https://confidentstep.lv

Episode 8: The role of the Early Start Denver Model on child development

Hello Dear listeners, take a look at the next podcast episode on the topic “The role of the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) in child development” with a BCBA Melissa Mello! She is a project manager and clinical supervisor with a history of working with children with ASD for over 15 years. Melissa is a certified ESDM therapist and trainer.

ESDM is evidence-based behavioral intervention for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder between the ages of 1-4. It focuses on addressing language, cognitive, and social skills in everyday activities and interactions.

We discussed several topics about the ESDM:

· The reason why a parent or a specialist should choose the ESDM as a therapeutic approach for children with autism.

· The effectiveness of the ESDM in research.

· The main difference between Applied Behavior Analysis and Early Start Denver Model.

· A little bit more about the therapy process – assessing a child’s skills, setting goals, and choosing the strategies to promote child development.

· The role of the parents in the therapy process.

You can find more information about the ESDM and trainings here: https://www.esdm.co/
