| NP. I don’t hit it looks interesting. I think it may be new, but appears to have other locations that have been around longer. |

Here's a review I found online:
Christine Kangas Aug 20, 2018 I am a Speech Pathologist. My daughter was diagnosed with a processing disorder as well as OT concerns this year. Although some of her diagnoses fell into my professional arena. I was in over my head. These ladies are the real deal. They have well exceeded my expectations (and I had high expectations). We followed their recommendations and have seen huge progress in a short time. I highly highly recommend this practice. |

| Yes. I spoke with a rep about 2ish weeks ago. It’s a combination of DIR/Floortime, speech, ot and mental health services. |

| Reviving this thread to see if anyone has had any additional experience with Positive Development in Bethesda for DIR/floortime or other therapy. Interested for a 2.5 year old boy recently diagnosed with autism/ASD (level 1). Particularly interested in any experiences getting help there with: adjusting to large or small transitions, emotional/cognitive rigidity, emotional regulation, social communication, and joint attention. |

| Our child is having a great experience at Positive Development although he is much older. The OT is fun/supportive and we've enjoyed the play therapist who comes to the house. And I've also benefited from talking to their therapist for the parents. |

They do take insurance.
I would definitely do this over ABA if I could go back and do it all over again - my Autistic child is grown. I have been following the increase in DIR reimbursement and I think it's fantastic. |

| What is the age limit? My kid is almost 12 and has ASD |

| My kid does positive development and is in HS, so 12 is definitely in their age range. |

| I've filled out online form twice and they never responded. Looks interesting, but no number to call and they are unresponsive. |
