Naturalistic interventions, which combine behavioral and developmental interventions, are being implemented in a number of educational and clinical settings. As part of the practice in our pediatric clinic, we are treating younger and younger children, targeting early prelinguistic and engagement skills, and focusing on natural, playful exchanges between children and others. This course will describe several empirically validated naturalistic interventions, describe some of their features, and discuss how they are currently being used in our clinical setting.

Dr. Buckendorf was in practice for over 35 years, treating children and adults with a wide range of disabilities. One focus of his practice with children with autism was in family centered treatment, using techniques that involve families extensively and provide opportunities for caregivers to successfully interact with their children. His interests were in pediatric speech and language disabilities including autism, language disorders, phonological disorders, cranio-facial disorders, and fluency disorders. He was president of the Oregon Speech and Hearing Association and the Oregon Academy of Speech Pathology and Audiology, and received the honors of the Oregon Speech and Hearing Association in 2010. He presented nationally and internationally (Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Kenya, Saudi Arabia, Cuba, Azerbaijan, Macedonia, and Kygryzstan) to families, students, and professionals on the topic of diagnosis and treatment of children with Autism and other communication disabilities. He co-authored several book chapters on Speech-Language Pathology topics. He edited a text on autism (Autism: A Guide for Educators, Clinicians, and Parents, 2008, Super Duper Publications).
