Overview of Greenspan's DIR/Floortime Model

There are many treatment methods available to support learning, appropriate behaviors, social and emotional growth, and relationships with children on the autistic spectrum. Many of these techniques are behaviorally based, which can provide some structure and containment for children. However, to fully develop a child's long-term capacity to interact in the world, relate to others, problem solve, tolerate frustrations, and enjoy engaging, relationally based approaches to treatment are the way to go.

“We have come so far since we first called panicking about our son's behavior! I wanted to let you know how grateful we are for the time we have spent with our therapist at Child Therapy Chicago. She went above and beyond for us and we are in such a better place because of her. She was able to witness many of the behavioral issues we were struggling with and show us how to handle them real-time. In addition to the sessions, she sent such insightful emails with ideas and resources and seems to truly care about our son and our progress. We have a newfound confidence that we can manage things with our son. I will be sure to let others know about Child Therapy Chicago.”

- BN from Lakeview; mother of a 3 1/2 year old boy

“Dr. Duval has a casual, playful way about her that makes my son so comfortable. He actually likes going to work with her and has made great progress.”

- Brenda from Lincoln Park

“The therapist at Child Therapy Chicago was absolutely amazing with my 6 year old child. My child grew to trust her and they truly connected. Through this trust and connection, the therapist was able to get to the root of the issue and we were able to resolve the issue. The staff at Child Therapy Chicago truly cared for my daughter's well being and proved to be a great support to me as well. The work with Child Therapy Chicago will serve my child through her life.”

- LC from Oak Park
