His comprehensive approach from the developmental, genetic, neurobiological, and environmental and cultural/spiritual facets have consistently resulted in significant gains by his clients. He focuses on the symptom complex and how it is connected with the neurotransmitters and brain circuits rather than mere diagnostic criteria.

He believes that raising a son with Autism has been a blessing to understand the pain of others.
