Turn Austism Around

By: Mary Lynch Barbera PhD

Narrated by: Mary Lynch Barbera PhD

Developmental delays and signs of autism usually show up before 18 months of age, yet children are often not diagnosed until they are 4 or 5 years old. In Turn Autism Around, Dr. Mary Barbera explains why parents can't afford to worry and wait in long lines for evaluations and treatment while not knowing how to help their children. She empowers parents, caregivers, and early intervention professionals to regain hope and take back control with simple strategies to dramatically improve outcomes for their children.Dr. Barbera has created a new approach to teaching kids with developmental delays that uses the science of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) married with a positive, child-friendly methodology that any parent can use--whether or not their child has delays--to learn to teach communication skills, socialization strategies, as well as tackle sleep, eating, potty training, and behavior challenges in a positive, effective, and lasting way.Turn Autism Around is the first book of its kind that calls attention to an important fact: parents can make a tremendous impact on their child's development through behavioral practices taught at home, even in as little as 15 minutes a day. Her program shows these autism and developmental delays can be remediated, and in some cases, delays can be caught up altogether, if parents intervene while the child is young.This book is for parents of young children aged one-to-five years who are passionate about helping their child as well as learning how they can change the trajectory of their child's and family's life.This audio product contains a PDF with supporting material, and the PDF is available to download

Practical

Very helpful and easy to put into practice. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking assistance.

Great resource tool

I found this book to be a very helpful resource with actual tools you can use to help teach your child with autism. What Dr. Barbera presents are simple steps with repetition. As a grandparent of a child with ASD I wanted to learn more how to help my 4 year old granddaughter. I wish I would have found this book 2years ago.

Hopeful Parent

I am a parent waiting to get my child tested. I feel more prepared and able to help my child while I wait for diagnosis. I feel more confident that I can help my child and start my journey more informed.

Great easy guide for parents of autism!

I already enjoyed the first 3 chapters so far!!! It a simple easy to read guide for parents and caregivers...it gives me hope for the future of my child and to all children with special needs...early intervention is key! Looking forward to reading the rest of her book on audible along with the hardcover book as well!

Thank you for your wisdom.

As a grandma of a Autistic grandson, I much appreciated step by step in our journey. Hope all of us grow a little each day to help our special loved ones that is all around us, diagnosed or not.
