About ChildCenter

The ChildCenter is a non-profit foundation which provides treatment and support to children on the autistic spectrum. Based in Amsterdam, the ChildCenter relies on a team of experts from a variety of disciplines (a.o. educational psychology, ergotherapy, speech and language therapy, sensory integration and physical therapy, play therapy, clinical psychology, music therapy) whose treatment approach is based on a method developed by Stanley Greenspan, an American child psychiatrist. Central to this approach is the idea that emotions form the basis of learniing, whereby intentional contact and communication - so difficult for autistic children - can only exist if emotion and intention are combined with behavior and language in a meaningful, playful, natural manner.
