The Carrie Brazer Center for Autism, and Alternative Approaches, Inc, was founded in 1999 by Carrie Brazer, a Florida Certified, Special Education teacher.
Carrie began helping individual families of children with Autism eight years ago as an Applied Behavior Analysis Specialist and Trainer in her home and others.
Her center now schools over 65 children weekly, who are afflicted with Autism and other developmental delays.
Her program consists of highly structured, consistent, cognitive & community based instruction based solely on the principles of positive reinforcement.
She strives to teach the family as well as the child each and every day.
Because Carrie Brazer believes in a "team-family-centered" approach to healing, the center will provide a vast amount of support for both the child and the family.
Our in-staff, licensed occupational therapists, speech therapists and physical therapists will cater to the individual needs of the child.
Our on-site licensed social workers will aid the family through psychotherapy and bi-weekly support meetings as well as parent training classes.
