Our Team

The Autism Center of Northern California is committed to multi-disciplinary teamwork. Many of our staff work in other settings as private practitioners and providers of innovative programs for children on the autism spectrum at home, school and  beyond. Each is dedicated to integrating behavioral methods with developmental programming.

All ACNC trainees are enrolled in APA-accredited PhD/PsyD programs and supervised full-time by an attending staff clinical psychologist.
