Our Nurturing Minds Unit, run by Cathy Buckley, PhD. provides nutritional counseling services, with an emphasis on Autism. The unit also provides tutoring services to both the special needs and neurotypical populations.  Dr. Buckley is uniquely qualified - in addition to her extensive academic and practical knowledge base, she is also the mother of an Autistic daughter and has taken her own counsel with respect to nutrition and education for her child.

Holistic nutritional and supplement interventions for autism, PDD, ADHD and other spectrum disorders. 

Nutrition and diet can have a profound effect on many common behavioral and physical symptoms in ASD and other developmental disabilities:

·        Aggression

·        Language

·        Sensory issues

·        Sleep patterns

·        Ability to focus/ eye contact

·        Self-injury and self-stimulatory behaviors

·        Gastrointestinal problems

·        Skin rashes and allergies

·        Chronic pain

As a scientist and teacher, as well as the parent of an autistic child, I share knowledge and experience based on many years of research and application of numerous bionutritional interventions which help correct imbalances, eliminate pathogens, support toxin removal, improve cognitive functioning and vastly improve overall health and well-being.

Initial consultation and nutritional plan - $70   Follow-ups: $40
