Autism support for Exeter families

Families with children at Exeter High School and Cooperative Middle School often ask us for help with anxiety, focus, sleep or school planning. A first visit by video from home can be easier for autistic children and adults who find new places tiring.

Exeter is a historic town with a busy downtown, a well-known academy and many residents who commute to Portsmouth or Boston. Families often reach out about teen stress and attention, and adults about anxiety and sleep. The drive to Salem is about 35 to 40 minutes.

School planning

With permission, we provide clinical information to support IEP or 504 planning.
