Amy Muetterties holds a Master in Education from the University of Washington in Seattle. She has several years of experience in early intervention focused on ESDM and play based teaching approaches to working with children with autism. Amy has worked with children from ages 2 years to 18 years of age within both home and school settings. She has provided individualized therapy, supervision to other therapists, and parent training.

Aligned with the ESDM, Amy strongly believes early intervention should focus on naturalistic teaching opportunities to support developmental growth. In addition, the close relationship fostered while working within home settings allows for the most appropriate and highly motivating learning environment for the child. Through supervision and an individualized learning plan, goals are tailored for every child and their family.

Amy also holds a Master in Social Work which has led to working with children with comorbid diagnoses of ADHD and anxiety disorders alongside autism. Her interest is in seeking out therapeutic ways to address these disorders.
