Cortica

Cortica (formerly Pediatric Neurology Therapeutics) is a rapdily growing healthcare company pioneering a unique and effective approach to treating Autism Spectrum Disorders. Harnessing insights and technologies from emerging neuroscience, Cortica brings together clinical specialists from a range of disciplines to design and deliver comprehensive care to children with autism and their families. Cortica's treatment model coordinates a multi-disciplinary team of clinicians with the common goals of fostering the child's holistic development and empowering family members. An "inside out" component focuses on improving the health of the body through medical diagnosis and treatment, nutrition, supplements, neurofeedback, and other strategies. Simultaneously, an "outside in" component optimizes the environment, learning opportunities, and overall experiences of the child through speech and language therapy, neurological music therapy, occupational therapy, a progressive model of Applied Behavioral Analysis, and parent education. More than simply bringing these services under one roof, specialists at Cortica collaborate to achieve a common understanding of each patient, develop individually tailored treatment plans, and coordinate care that evolves to match the child's progress.
