The Milman Center was established in 1992 in Haifa, Israel. The Center specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The Center has several branches in Haifa, including two therapy centers and a special needs kindergarten (ages 0–3). There is an additional therapy center in the town of Karmiel. The center also offers private therapy sessions, an after school club for teenagers and home therapies.
One of the unique features of the Center, is its intensive parent-child therapy program with a psycho-developmental approach, placing the parents in the center of the therapeutic process which in turn aims to widen the range of the child’s development. The therapists co-work with the parents to develop the child’s motor, sensory and language skills, as well as social communication and emotional development skills. The parents are an essential element of the therapy process and receive continual supervision and emotional support from the Milman team throughout the program.
