During an individual session, children can receive intensive help to give the child the extra time and attention they need to master specific behaviours and skills.

Your child’s performance is closely observed and documented for every session as a way to monitor progress.

Divyanka is my oldest daughter, aged 8. When she first started ABA therapy under the guidance of Liyuan and his team, she was completely non-verbal. I was a stay-home mom at that time and attempted to toilet train her on my own but failed. The team effectively worked on a toilet regime, which worked out so well with Divyanka. In 6 months she was not only able to independently go to the toilet but was also able to verbalise her need to go to the toilet. Her constant frustrations with not being able to communicate also reduced greatly as she started to speak at age 5 for the first time, thanks to Liyuan and his team of magicians.The compliance, which she obtained from her ABA therapy, has served as a good foundation for Divyanka to learn better and follow instructions well. We were lucky to have Liyuan as our Programme Manager as there were many circumstances that he extended a helping hand or tried his level best to make things work for us. We live in Malaysia and he even made time to make a home visit to another country, which was wonderful as his suggestions helped Divyanka greatly.Thank you for making a difference in our lives.At 18 months, Janice was not having consistent eye contacts with people around her.My wife and i got very worried. Luckily, I found Li Yuan and his team; AutismSTEP.I have to say Li Yuan is very passionate about his line of work, he explained to me about ABA and how it help to correct children behaviours. Li Yuan is very confident and experienced in this line.In only 2 weeks, i have seen very good results, Janice started to have more eye contact with more people and myself.Janice has went through the programme for 2 months now, i am very satisified with the result. She has developed so much in social skills in these 2 months.AustimSTEP provides progressive tracking of behaviour improvements and also tackling all fundamental development areas for children.Thank you so much to Li Yuan and his team. I highly recommend AustimSTEP.Thank you for being the transformation teacher for Aarav.When we came in here – we were bit lost and also were trying hard to get accustomed to Singapore, Child Education and raising a child itself.So after a tough phase in Aarav’s school, when Liyuan Offered help – we lapped it up. The suggested process looked like it could work but only if you can experience it.Thank you for being who you are. You have been able to help Aarav in recognising who he is and has pushed the envelope. With your help, Aarav has gained a foothold in his own personal space and you also had a calming impact on him. I especially would like to appreciate your understanding, approach and composure. The empathy and human side of yours make you a better teacher than the rest. I would value you as a friend and a teacher who also taught me a few things.I would like to thank you for all your hard work and the different ways to make Aarav learn things. Again, we are truly thankful to have you as his teacher.Stay blessed.We can see a great improvement on Ruo Xi but due to my work schedule Ruo Xi will travel with me on and off to oversea. The team from AutismSTEP has been great teacher and both of them really put effort to guide my daughter and now she have a great eye contact and respond. The great 3 months + really mean a lot to me and my family after seeing her for the fast improvement. I would like to thank both of them for their patience and effort to teach Ruo Xi. Without knowing AutismSTEP I really don’t know who I should share my worry and concern of Ruo Xi. Thank you for everything.
AutismSTEP is established by Zhang Liyuan in Singapore, with over 18 years of experience working with children with Autism. He graduated with a degree in Psychology from NUS, but he started a career as a Behavioural Therapist even as an undergrad. Since then, he has forged on this career path.
Liyuan pursued further training in Australia and went back to Singapore to help families who have members with special needs. He has worked with children as young as 14 months old and even 34-year-old adults.
Outside of Singapore, Liyuan has also worked with individuals who have low to high functioning autism in countries like China, Indonesia, Australia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Hong Kong, Myanmar, India, United Kingdom, Finland and Singapore.
Liyuan aims for each child within the autism spectrum to gain independence so that when their parent’s eventually pass on, they can be confident that their children are able to take care of themselves.
AutismSTEP has helped more than 500 children and many of these have transitioned smoothly into mainstream schools. From one dream, AutismSTEP has grown to be a team of more than 40 therapists, all trained, vetted, and experienced to help your child.
AutismSTEP is a team of passionate behavioural therapists. Majority of us hold a degree in Psychology. Others have degrees in related fields such as Special Needs and Early Childhood.
All of them have prior experience with children with special needs. They are all required to be a certified RBT.
