After seeing so many families, therapists, and schools/centers having such a
hard time with children and adults struggling with meltdowns, extreme and
explosive behaviors, and high anxiety, it really hit me how little help there
was for these kinds of challenges and crises. Moreover, what little help there
is usually approaches the issue from a deeply misguided place. That is why I,
along with my longtime colleague and friend Raun K. Kaufman, developed the ACT
(Autism Crisis Turnaround) protocol. Having pioneered the concept of
Neuro-Crashes, the ACT protocol solves crises by addressing the underlying
causes instead of trying to stamp out the symptoms (which only makes things
worse).
