Sinossi
Il termine Floortime - letteralmente "tempo passato sul pavimento" - indica sia una tecnica specifica di interazione e gioco che avviene appunto "sul pavimento", sia un approccio generale orientato a favorire lo sviluppo del bambino tenendo conto dei suoi interessi e delle sue abilità. Trattare l'autismo illustra per la prima volta ai genitori e agli operatori professionali questo metodo innovativo di grande efficacia, i cui successi sono noti in ogni parte del mondo. Greenspan ha dimostrato che i bambini con sintomi di autismo non hanno potenzialità rigidamente limitate o determinate: in molti casi riescono a integrarsi nel gruppo di coetanei e a condurre una vita soddisfacente dal punto di vista emotivo e intellettivo. Poiché guesto programma può essere applicato fin dalle primissime fasi dello sviluppo, la speranza di prevenire le manifestazioni più gravi del disturbo autistico diventa una possibilità reale.

This book represents a paradigm shift in how autism is viewed and treated. I was trained as an ABA therapist in college, and when I went on to have a son who I suspected of having autism I was flummoxed to discover ABA really didn't work that well. Through trial and error I've found that we had alre Leggi tutto
A very dense, practical book, this is not something you're going to read for fun. However the methods of play that they teach and advocate, I have found to be quite effective. We have had a lot of success, and my son really enjoys both regular play and the special DIR Floortime play method. I'm not
Excellent book for professionals in the autism field. Thoroughly explains the DIR approach, an alternative to ABA that focuses on developing basic emotional and relational abilities in order to help higher level thinking and relating skills develop naturally.
This book shows the best and personally the only therapy for autism I would trust. It enters into the child's world first, if people had entered MY world first when I was young and strugeling then I wouln't have the issues I have in dealing with people. I am on the autism spectrum and this book coul Leggi tutto
I'm a big fan of Greenspan, and of the floortime approach. Floortime has really helped us break through with our daughter, diagnosed with Autism at age 2. We've been very proactive... providing her with speech, developmental and occupational therapy, as well as enrolling her in a developmental presc Leggi tutto
Stanley Greenspan was a genius! I originally read this book in 2009 after Owen was diagnosed. This book transformed my family's life from feeling despair to hope. It was great to get a chance to reread it and remember some of the very basics that we still use every day in our home.
2019: This was a reread of parts III to V, which was still slow going but worth revisiting. This time around I noted that the original claims for the effectiveness of Applied Behaviour Analysis have not been replicated (see p.252). I would also like to read the Affect-based Language Curriculum, but
This is a classic and well-respected work on treating autism, and yet the floortime approach is really only going to work if your autistic child has some interests that you can be part of. If your child is self-stimulating on a blinking light toy, or perhaps by opening and closing a cabinet door rep Leggi tutto
