Parents will practice the specific set of strategies (visual, interactive, tactile, responsive) during sessions that occur weekly and last 1 hour for a total of 26 sessions, over 6 months. Each session will include four segments: (a) the therapist will review the intervention strategies taught in the workshop (10 min), (b) the therapist will model the intervention strategy with the child (10 min), (c) the parent will practice the strategy with her child with coaching from the therapist across four different routines and activities of the parent's choice (30 min), and (d) the therapist will provide feedback to the parent, summarize the session, and answer the parent's questions (10 min).
