Autism Learning Partners now offers treatment services in many states across the US, collaborating with doctors, therapist, families, schools, and specialists for complete, effective care.

Lauren Giammalvo M.S., BCBA, LABA

Associate Clinical Director

Hi! My name is Lauren Giammalvo and I am excited to introduce myself as the Associate Clinical Director for Putnam, Connecticut and Providence, Rhode Island. I’ve been in the field of behavior analysis since 2010 and joined Autism Learning Partners when our Rhode Island region opened in 2019. I pride myself on a compassionate and family-centered approach to treatment. It is my mission to ensure that my families, clients, and coworkers feel supported, valued, and heard.
I’m a native of New Bedford, Massachusetts and currently reside in Rhode Island with my husband. In my spare time I teach child yoga classes and love supporting small, local businesses.

I look forward to contributing to a culture of clinical excellence and inclusivity and would love to chat about how I can help serve your region.

Frequently Asked Questions in Providence

The medical diagnosis must come from a diagnostic provider, such as a Primary Care Physician or Psychologist. Unfortunately, an IEP will not suffice on its own. A diagnostic evaluation, like the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS), would need to be completed.

Therapy sessions might take place in your home or community, depending on what the ALP Clinical team recommends. Each session, a Behavior Technician will work one-on-one with your child, targeting individualized goals embedded into fun and functional activities. Sessions can last 2-4 hours depending on your child’s needs. Parent training is always a part of the treatment plan, as we want you to have that support.

There are parent organizations and resources within the Providence area that may be helpful supplements to ABA therapy. Please contact us for more information.

Therapy sessions could take place in your home, community, or center environment, depending on what the ALP Clinical team recommends, and if the school and insurance provides approval.

We currently do not conduct diagnostic evaluations at this location, but can provide families with a list of diagnosticians in the Providence area.
