Hello my name is Vera Bernard-Opitz. I am a German Psychological Psychotherapist and a Behavior Analyst.

We herewith share free information on Autism-Specific Behavior Therapy (ABT).

Colleagues, therapists, teachers and parents can access helpful material, links and films. 

We will regularly add current topics, new ideas and trailers. Readers are invited to send us their latest therapy ideas, case stories and films,

so that we can share them with the "Rest of the World".
