Relationship Development Intervention® (RDI®)

 

What Does RDI® Offer Families?

RDI® improves quality of life for both your child and your whole family in many ways:

 

• Return to a normal family life and enjoy the moment – have dinner together, involve your child in everyday chores and errands, and stop rushing from one therapy appointment to the next.
• Become able to share your own experiences and interests with your child.
• See a decrease in tantrums as your child becomes more flexible, learns not to fear uncertainty, and has increased resilience in the face of disappointment.

 

Because RDI® is future-focused, it offers families hope.

The idea is to work toward improved quality of life for your child (friendships, employability, independence, marriage, etc.) in the long term. With RDI®, parents find they become increasingly thoughtful in their day-to-day interactions with their child, become empowered, and begin to realize the important role they can play in their child’s social development.
