In this episode of “Autism: A New Perspective,” Dr. Sheely talks about RDI® and parent empowerment.

My advice to RDI® parents is to make sure you and your consultant are asking, “How does everybody get on the same page and how do you come together as a family?” Not an autism family, but how do you come together as a family?
