Discrete trial teaching (DTT) involves breaking larger skills down into small, or ‘discrete,’ teachable components.

Meet Lizard parent Julia who shares an incredible insight to her journey in the discovery of her son with autism.

The Lizard Centre recognizes that in this time of uncertainty many questions have been asked regarding where, how, and if ABA services can and should be continued in centres and in the home for families currently receiving services.

Lizard Centre now offers a three-month parent training programme developed to decrease challenging behaviours in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This programme has been proven highly useful in helping children with autism, and helping the family and social network around them.

In Australia, reputable experts have endorsed ABA-based interventions and Autism programs.
