CONSULTATION

Educational and behavioral consultation offers access to the expertise at Thrive. Our priority is to collaborate with schools in ways that are practical, effective, and useful for them.  We work to create a relationships with school professionals where we can learn from each other to develop strategies and plans that will have an immediate, positive effect for the individual, community agency, or school. 

TRAININGS

We respect and recognize the expertise that schools and our community partners hold. At Thrive, we also believe there is always more to learn!

WORKSHOPS & CERTIFICATIONS

We offer the 3-day Advanced Workshop in the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM). This workshop is delivered at our clinic in Denver, or on-site at your agency or location. Professionals who have completed the Introductory ESDM workshop can participate in this interactive workshop. Small groups of 3-5 professionals are placed together to engage in hands-on practice with children with ASD while receiving in-vivo coaching from a certified ESDM trainer to gain greater fluency and fidelity in the model. Feedback and practice exercises are also provided to further learn the assessment, goal-writing, and data collection aspects of this model.

Following the workshop, we also offer supervision throughout the ESDM certification process.
