Contrasts with: Clinician-directed, deficit-focused approaches
Discrete trial / structured behavioral

Discrete Trial Documentation Pattern

Contrasts with: Naturalistic, play-based, child-led approaches
Neurodiversity-affirming / strengths-based

Neurodiversity-Affirming Pattern

Bilingual / culturally responsive

Bilingual & Culturally Responsive Pattern
