Lighthouse Autism Center - Hobart

Lighthouse Autism Center is a dedicated institution focused on supporting children aged 2 to 17 with autism through personalized, evidence-based care. The center's core mission is to unlock each child's unique strengths and potential by employing innovative therapeutic methodologies, including Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy, which is grounded in the principles of learning theory to effectively address behavioral challenges. Lighthouse also emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and offers comprehensive diagnostic testing to ensure that children receive timely interventions. Each child benefits from a collaborative approach that includes speech support from licensed pathologists, enabling them to achieve their communication goals as part of the Lighthouse Fusion® ABA therapy model. Additionally, the center provides specialized programs aimed at enhancing school readiness and social skills, fostering an environment where children can develop essential life skills in a supportive setting. What sets Lighthouse apart is its commitment to maintaining low student-teacher ratios and fostering strong partnerships with families through regular meetings that allow for real-time adjustments in programming. This holistic approach not only addresses the individual needs of each child but also equips families with valuable resources and support throughout their journey with autism.
