Peggy, 3rd Grade TeacherMental Health & Clinicians
"The Social Thinking Methodology is the philosophy that I ascribe to professionally. It serves as my guide through assessment and intervention."
Greg, School PsychologistSpeech Language Pathologists
"I love how realistic the approach is, and doable! Based on real clinical experience adaptable to individual needs/strengths. Great that all the vocabulary is simple, easy to understand, and not full of professional shop talk."
Amy, SLPParents & Families
"Social Thinking’s program has given me the much needed tools to communicate in a meaningful way with my 9-year-old son. Thank you. The stress level in our house has decreased along with the meltdowns. He is able to come out of the meltdowns much more readily."
