Trellis Services: Providing Autism Waiver Services, Behavioral and Developmental Consultation for all Developmental Disorders

Our philosophy is to utilize the strength of a team approach to ensure holistic and thorough treatment. We base assessment, goal development, and monitor progress on an Applied Verbal Behavior Model. In addition, we integrate speech and language, sensory processing, behavior management, and other developmental concepts into objective goals. Our focus is to access the child's motivation in developing a love of learning. Natural environment teaching and systematic instruction are used to provide a fun, yet effective learning environment.

Training & Experience

Our team is led by Dr. Kathy Niager, a licensed Psychologist with 16 years of experience in the field. Our clinical team consists of special educators, speech and language therapists, occupational therapists, and behavior specialists. Case Managers are qualified professionals who receive the support of the entire clinical staff for additional oversight and peer supervision. Instructors receive basic intervention training, CPR, and Disruptive Behavior Management training through Trellis Services.
