What is The Son-Rise Program\u00ae?<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n

This autism treatment has provided innovative training programs for parents and professionals caring for children challenged by Autism, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) and other developmental difficulties. The Son-Rise Program\u00ae teaches a specific and comprehensive system of treatment and education designed to help families and caregivers enable their children to dramatically improve in all areas of learning, development, communication and skill acquisition. It offers highly effective educational techniques, strategies and principles for designing, implementing and maintaining a stimulating, high-energy, one-on-one, home-based, child-centered program.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

What Makes The Son-Rise Program\u00ae Different?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Son-Rise Program\u00ae was the first to suggest that children with these diagnoses had the potential for extraordinary healing and growth.\u00a0The Son-Rise Program\u00ae innovated an educational treatment modality which included joining children instead of going against them. The program places parents as key teachers, therapists and directors of their own programs and utilizes the home as the most nurturing environment in which to help their children. The Son-Rise Program\u00ae dared to suggest that respect and deep caring would be the most important factor impacting a child’s motivation to learn, and from the beginning has made love and acceptance a meaningful part of every teaching process. Employing this attitude, we first seek to create bonding and a safe environment. We then apply sound, time-tested educational strategies pioneered by The Son-Rise Program\u00ae. These principles remain a cornerstone of our approach.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    \n
  • Learn to speak, even if they’ve never spoken.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Experience real happiness, satisfaction, and love, even if they seem frustrated or combative right now.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Have deep, meaningful, caring relationships with others, even though they may have appeared disconnected for years.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Have fun, reciprocal conversations, even if they have a history of rigid communication.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Make close friends, even if they don’t start with the interest or the tools to do so.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Live a life that may include college, dates, sports, jobs, hobbies, travel, girlfriends\/boyfriends – regardless of how many of these life experiences their parents have been told were simply not possible.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      • Joining in a child’s repetitive and ritualistic behaviors supplies the key to unlocking the mystery of these behaviors and facilitates eye contact, social development and the inclusion of others in play.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n

      • Teaching through interactive play results in effective and meaningful socialization and communication.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
      • Using energy, excitement and enthusiasm engages the child and inspires a continuous love of learning and interaction.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
      • Employing a nonjudgmental and optimistic attitude maximizes the child’s enjoyment, attention and desire throughout their Son-Rise Program\u00ae.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
      • Placing the parent as the child’s most important and lasting resource provides a consistent and compelling focus for training, education and inspiration.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
      • Creating a safe, distraction-free work\/play area facilitates the optimal environment for learning and growth.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        We can help you to bring your child as far across the bridge from Autism to recovery as possible. For some, this means complete recovery. For others, this means improvements in their child’s development, human connection, communication, skill acquisition and quality of life far beyond what most would have ever predicted<\/strong><\/h4>\n

        You’re not giving up on your child. Neither are we.<\/strong><\/h4>\n
