We’re Stronger Together: The Magnificent Power of Interdisciplinary Care for Your Child

As parents, you’re often juggling advice, recommendations, and reports from so many different professionals. It can feel like you’re carrying the weight of coordinating everything—speech therapy, occupational therapy, medical appointments, school supports, and behavior goals—all while trying to simply be “mom” or “dad.” I see this all the time in my work as a BCBA, and I want you to know: you don’t have to do this alone. When professionals work together—not just alongside each other—your child gets consistent, compassionate support across all areas of their life. That’s the heart of interdisciplinary care, and it can be a true game-changer for families.
