Lizard Centre is Australia’s leading provider of evidence based early intervention programs for young children with autism spectrum and related disorders.

Our programs utilise the principles of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA), which have been scientifically proven to help children develop to their full potential.

Each program is individualised to address skill deficits faced by children with autism in a fun and rewarding way in all developmental areas, including communication, language, play, social skills, imitation and cognition, motor skills, daily living skills, and emotional regulation.

We also provide comprehensive parent, therapist, and teacher training, which allows for teamwork and collaboration and better results.

We have centres in Sydney, Melbourne & Adelaide and are an NDIS accredited organisation.
