After Just Eight Months Of Doing RDI®, My 4 1/2 Year Old Autistic Son Finally Said The Words I Had Waited His Whole Life To Hear - “I Love You Mommy.”

And With Just a Bit Of Training You Too Might Find That RDI® Helps Your Child To Reach Out From His Isolation and Finally Be Able To Connect With Your Family, Friends and His Peers.

Why RDI®?
  • You will connect with your child in ways you never thought possible.
  • Empowers Parents - It's a parent based consultant model, results in better quality of life for the entire family.
  • Treats the Autism, not the symptoms of autism.
  • Teaches you how to regain control and set better limits.
  • Enjoy no more meltdowns and improved flexibility.
  • Cost Effective - a fraction of other home and school based programs.

RDI® has often been described as "The Missing Link" of Autism Intervention. I want to help you find out for yourself just how valuable this amazing intervention is and how it can work for your child and your family.

What are your most important needs when it comes to managing your life and helping your autistic child? Well, I have spoken to clients and parents in your situation and my situation. Here are some of the answers I have heard. "We just want to feel normal again. We want to be able to control and help determine the outcome of our lives! We fear for the future of our child. What will happen to him after we are gone? How will he live? We want to be able to connect with our child but day after day we struggle and often feel like we are losing the battle!!"

How I Can Help You

As an RDI® Program Certified Consultant, I can help you with all of these issues and more! How can I say that with such confidence? Because unlike some of the other behavioral modification interventions out there that claim to benefit and to give your child the skills to cope and function in this world, RDI®  is about treating and remedying the CORE and the ROOTS of the autism itself. In RDI® lingo, these core roots are otherwise known as The Core Deficits of Autism. So let me give a quick tour on how I can help you with your most serious and urgent concerns!

What Quality Of Life Will Your Child Have When He Grows Up?

One of the most profound questions and concerns that RDI® addresses is
The Quality of Life for Your Child as he/she grows up into adulthood. Dr. Steve Gutstein, founder of RDI® began asking the hard but pertinent questions such as, "What are we preparing these kids for? Yes, now they are two, but what will they look like when they are 12, 22, 32, etc? Are we giving them the life skills that they will need to provide them with a better quality of life?" READ MORE...

What Kind of Skills Do People On The Spectrum Really Need?

Teaching academic or trade skills to people on the Spectrum is certainly helpful, however what people on the spectrum really miss are the skills needed to competently function in a social dynamic world. In the following two videos you see a boy who has a great amount of skills. READ MORE...

Another Important RDI® Process - Guided Participation

"Another process I use is called “Guided Participation,” in which I teach you how to interact with your child at a level that is developmentally appropriate. The goal is to find a your child’s “zone of proximal development” which is just beyond the child’s level of competence. As a RDI® Program Certified Consultant, I work closely READ MORE...

Why RDI® Is The Best Autism Intervention Value In Town!

Most traditional home-based autism treatment programs can cost anywhere from twenty to forty thousand dollars a year!! (Yes, it costs the same as a year’s college tuition). In most other treatment models you hire people to come into your home and work with you child or you have to drive them to several therapists. At the end of the week or month you owe them a huge amount of money and hope that they are doing a good job. READ MORE...

"RDI® is still the single most important intervention we have utilized.” “After the RDI® professional we had been working with retired, I was delighted to find Dr. Stacy Goresko to work with us. Her warm manner, sense of humor, flexibility and astute observations made her a good fit for us. As we have worked with her, I have also come to appreciate how much her background in communication gives her greater depth in the field of relationships and communication.” “I would highly recommend both RDI® and Dr. Stacy Goresko to any parent who has a child on the autism spectrum, or even a child who has those same kinds of relationship challenges.”

“We came to RDI® after 2 and 1/2 years of implementing a 30+ hour a week home ABA program for our son. The behavioral approach had enabled him to increase his receptive and functional language but we were saddened by his almost complete absence of social communication and a lack of facial expression and eye contact. Soon after switching our focus to developing an RDI® lifestyle we observed changes in our son: we began enjoying his company more and he started to show interest in us! We are very excited to get to know our son more and more as the years goes by.” “Stacy's insight into the hope that RDI® gives is a result of her own extensive training and background and also the successes she has had with her own son. She is non-judgmental and positive in her suggestions and ongoing review of our activities. She helps us to see our son's development as a marathon and not a sprint and to take joy in all of his small steps forward. We feel gently guided by her and not driven to action by feelings of guilt. She has certainly helped us to see that having a positive, loving relationship with our son is the foundation for his future development. RDI® has really worked in addressing our son's development as a person and we are so grateful to Stacy for her guidance.”
