Project ACCESS is proud to host Michelle Garcia-Winner of Social Thinking® as the presenter of “The Informal Dynamic Assessment and Core Treatment Strategies” a full-day presentation at the Project ACCESS Summer Conference 2020, June 12th, in Kansas City.

Michelle Garcia Winner, MA, CCC-SLP, is a speech-language pathologist who specializes in the treatment of students with social cognitive challenges, including but not limited to diagnoses such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, Asperger syndrome, ADHD/ADD, Twice Exceptional and Non-verbal learning disorder.

“Delve into the mind of a person with social learning challenges! Our Social Thinking Informal Dynamic Assessment includes four unique assessment tasks, shown through video, to uncover how individuals process and respond to social information in real time. Then, learn strategies to improve social competencies to use in treatment plans and/or at home. Finally, explore two core Social Thinking frameworks and strategies for use at home and school: Social Behavior Mapping and the Friendship Pyramid and related ideas for expanding treatment using these tools.”
