💙 Supporting Non-Verbal Autism in York Region — Autism Center for Kids

At Autism Center for Kids, we understand how challenging it can be when your child is non-verbal. That’s why we’re committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based support right here in Vaughan and across York Region — including Richmond Hill, Markham, Newmarket, Aurora, Whitchurch-Stouffville, East Gwillimbury, Georgina, King Township (King City), Maple, Woodbridge, Thornhill, Concord, Kleinburg, Gormley, Oak Ridges, Unionville, Cornell, and Mount Albert.

Why Choose Our Center for Non-Verbal Autism Support?

We offer play therapy, the Miller Method®, floortime (DIR), and CBT — not just ABA.

Insurance

We accept private insurance, including psychotherapy or psychology benefits, depending on your plan.

✨ Why Our Approach Matters

Non-ABA therapies are powerful: Many parents worry that not doing ABA means missing out. But evidence-based approaches like play therapy, Miller Method®, and CBT can be just as effective — especially for building meaningful communication and emotional connection.
Autism Center for Kids

Flexible & family-centered: You don’t need to wait for an ABA slot or take a “one-size-fits-all” route. With OAP support and direct insurance billing, your child can get care now.
Autism Center for Kids

Long-term growth: We help children and families build skills that last — social, emotional, communication, self-regulation — not just “behavior compliance.”

Field Placement Inquiry – Important Note

I often receive inquiries from students and volunteers interested in field placements or job shadowing at Autism Center for Kids. While we truly appreciate your interest and dedication to supporting children and families, I want to clarify an important point:

Autism Center for Kids is committed to maintaining a safe, inclusive, and respectful environment for all children, families, and staff. We do not accept students or volunteers from institutions or organizations whose practices promote discrimination, target specific religious or ethnic groups, or support boycotts against any community.

Our focus is on providing individualized therapy and mental health support in a professional and welcoming space for everyone. We welcome inquiries from students and volunteers whose values align with ours.

Thank you for understanding and for supporting a safe and inclusive environment for all.

🌈 Is Your Child Struggling with Learning or Development?

I’m Amir Haimove, founder of Autism Center for Kids in Vaughan.
I personally provide Clinical and Developmental Assessments to help parents understand their child’s strengths, challenges, and next steps for support.

Through a warm, family-centered approach, I help identify:
✅ Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
✅ ADHD and attention challenges
✅ Learning differences
✅ Social, emotional, and language needs

Every child develops in their own way — my goal is to give you clarity, understanding, and a clear plan for your child’s growth.

💙 I also provide psychotherapy and counseling, not ABA, to support children and families with emotional regulation, anxiety, and behavioral challenges.

💙 Our Ethical Responsibility and Commitment to Families 💙
At Autism Center for Kids, our foremost commitment is to the safety, well-being, and emotional health of every child we support.
As professionals working in the vulnerable sector, we are legally and ethically obligated to share our clinical observations and professional recommendations — even when they may be difficult to hear. Our duty is to speak from what we see in the child’s best interest, not from personal opinion or preference.
Sometimes, families may not agree with a recommendation or interpretation, and we fully respect that. However, disagreement does not mean wrongdoing. Providing honest, evidence-based feedback is part of our ethical and professional responsibility to protect and support the children in our care.
We will continue to do this work with compassion, integrity, and professionalism, always centering our decisions on what is best for each child’s growth, safety, and happiness.
Thank you to the many families who trust us and stand by our values — your support means the world to us. 💙
— The Team at Autism Center for Kids

🌟 Important Update: Winter & Summer Camps at Autism Center for Kids 🌟
As we continue to grow together as a close and supportive community, we want to share an important update about our upcoming December Winter Camp and Summer Camp programs.
Starting this year, our camps will be offered exclusively to current clients and families already connected with our center. This decision comes from our commitment to keeping our environment natural, consistent, and familiar — a place where every child feels comfortable, understood, and supported by people they already know and trust.
By focusing on children and families who are part of our ongoing programs, we can continue to provide the individualized care, safety, and emotional connection that make our programs so meaningful.
We deeply value the relationships we’ve built and look forward to creating another season of learning, laughter, and growth together. 💙
If you’re currently part of our programs, more details about registration will be shared directly with you soon.
Thank you for being part of our Autism Center for Kids family.
