Dr. Suzanne Goh, MD, BCBA Speaker, Thrive Together Summit
Cortica’s Whole-Child View of Autism Care Dr. Suzanne Goh, MD, BCBA, a board-certified pediatric behavioral neurologist, neuroscience researcher, and author, has drawn from decades of experience to create the research-based, whole-child care approach we use at Cortica.
A Whole-Child Autism Care Framework
As Cortica’s co-founder and chief medical officer, Dr. Goh believes that the most effective neurodevelopmental care begins with seeing each child as a whole person with a unique body, brain, and neurodevelopmental profile. In a whole-child approach to autism, we think of optimal child development like a thriving tree, which is rooted in a strong foundation, empowers the child to branch out, and is nourished by joy.
The Cortica Care Model
At Cortica, we believe that by partnering with caregivers and addressing each child’s needs and goals through fully coordinated medical, applied behavior analysis (ABA), developmental therapy, and counseling services, we can ensure that the whole child thrives, and that the whole family is supported on their care journey. Dr. Goh has discussed Cortica’s whole-child approach on podcasts including The Dhru Purohit Show, The Genius Life, Psych Hub, The Dr. Hyman Show, Kwik Brain, and more.
