Once you tell us more about your child during the intake questionnaire, a personalized ThriveGuide is instantly generated which includes: • Recommendations and Expert Insights prioritized in specific order to maximize learning. • Links to Scientific Research - We back up our insights and recommendations. It’s advice you can trust. • Best Next Steps - A powerful set of foundational concepts called The Essentials. These are how-to videos, with supporting scientific research, and activity ideas developed by Jonathan Alderson.

Designed by our founder and autism expert, Jonathan Alderson, the ThriveGuide was born out of a sincere empathy for parents who face a complex and unclear path for their autistic children. Through his private practice, the IMTI program, and formal training at the Autism Treatment Center of America, Jonathan Alderson has over 25 years of in-the-field experience working with families and children with autism globally. The ThriveGuide works as a digital version of Jonathan’s developmental, behavioral, and therapy assessment process used in his clinical experience with thousands of families, called The Treatment Map. Further developed by a specialized and creative group of computer engineers, research specialists, and autism educators, the ThriveGuide is the world’s first online holistic recommendation tool that is accessible to families around the globe, with no waiting list and at minimal cost. Our all-star team of professionals continues to refine and expand the ThriveGuide to offer parents and educators the very best experience and recommendations possible.

You first tell us about your child and the ThriveGuide algorithm does the rest! Recommendations are selected based on our in-depth, carefully designed intake questionnaire, which focuses on your child’s strengths and challenges in social skills, communication, independence, repetitive behavior, family dynamics, and more. The questionnaire takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes to complete, however please keep in mind that you don’t have to do it all at once, you’ll be able to pause and pick up right where you left off. Your child’s ThriveGuide with personalized insights and research-backed recommendations, based on your input, is then generated within seconds!

Whether your child has just received an autism diagnosis or you’ve tried hundreds of therapy options already, the ThriveGuide can support any caregivers of autistic children with strategies to support their child’s development. The ThriveGuide can be used independently or alongside other therapies and programs that your child is already engaging with. The ThriveGuide and the resources provided are best suited to younger autistic children, aged 2 to 11 years old. Though, in the future, as we develop, the ThriveGuide will be adapted for older children and autistic adults.
