Hi. My name is Deb Crump. I have been working with yourng children (12 months to kindergarten age) with Autism Spectrum disorders for 14 years. I am a Developmental Therapist through CDS (In Maine, this is the agency that supports young children with special needs. A Developmental Therapist works directly with those children and their families to meet needs they have in any area of development.) I also run my own business developing PECS, schedules, social stories and other visual supports. (Please visit me at http://www.a-different-drummer.htmlplanet.com/ .) I also enjoy teaching adults whether informally through the time I spend with parents or more formally through college classes and seminars. My 7-year-old son has an anxiety disorder and we are still struggling to get services for him as his grades remain high. I look forward to meeting other parents and professionals.
