Psychologist Relocated to North Houston area

[Guest guest]

Hello all,

I am a child psychologist with special interest and training in autism spectrum

disorders. I have just relocated to the North Houston area and have two private

practice locations, one in The Woodlands and one in Cypress.

I have been learning a lot from the postings in this group and am pleased to see

that Texas has such an active parent and professional autism community. I am

curious to know what people see as areas of need in North Houston that I may be

of service with. Is there a need for good diagnostic assessments or social

skills groups? Or a need for parent or sibling support groups? Help with school

advocacy? Support for kids with feeding challenges?

I'd be happy to have any suggestions or recommendations for educating myself as

I get familiar with Texas.

I have training in DIR/Floortime and really find this approach extremely

beneficial for many children and families. I also have extensive training in ASD

diagnostic assessments using the ADOS. It would be wonderful if my information

could be passed along to individuals who need those kind of services.

I appreciate the opportunity to be part of such a strong and dedicated group.

I think the area in most need i see is not in certain interventions but the location in houston. South houston such as clear lake, pearland, friends wood is in dire need of people who offer your services. Sent from my iPhone

I agree the location is a big issue. I can't speak for the entire spectrum, but

for the upper end of the spectrum (where my child is at), most autism services

seem to be southwest/west (Houston). There is dire need for quality services

here in The Woodlands. You will have more competition in the Cypress area.

A big problem will be getting the word out.
