The DIRFloortime™ Model typically involves an interdisciplinary team approach with speech therapy, occupational therapy, educational programs, mental health (developmental-psychological) intervention, visual-spatial thinking programs and, where appropriate, augmentative and biomedical intervention. The DIRFloortime™ Model also emphasizes the critical role of parents and other family members because of the importance of their emotional relationships with the child.
