Fabulous thank you. I like the sound of a therapy being less than a grand a week! ;)

Hi Kate,

How does one get in touch with you? (if that's even possible?)

Sarah Page :)

Hi Russell,

Thanks so much for writing about this. Really appreciated as our son was recently diagnosed (by Dr Warwick Smith) and we've been bombarded with a heck of a lot of information, some valuable, some not so.

We've got an ABA therapist coming to visit soon for an assessment but you're right, it's SO expensive. Around $1000 a week for 30 - 40 hours which for most NZ families is just not going to happen.

My question to you is, do you know if this is the NZ based developmental pediatrician Dr Warwick Smith or the Australian based one as there's two of them I've found on my google research! Be interesting to know...

:)
