ECHO Autism: Mental Health | Interest Form |
Thank you for your interest in our ECHO Autism: Mental Health program.
Thank you for your interest in the ECHO Autism: Mental Health program!
ECHO Autism Communities and the Missouri Department of Mental Health support a program called ECHO Autism: Mental Health. The overarching goal of this program is to improve care for autistic people with common co-occurring psychiatric disorders by increasing access to clinicians equipped to deliver best-practice therapeutic modalities modified for autistic people. The program focuses on increasing clinician confidence in implementing common outpatient therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a component of a comprehensive treatment plan for autistic people with mental health disorders. The ECHO Autism: Mental Health program is a no cost program that begins with a one-day kickoff training on Monday, October 6, 2025, and is followed by on-going ECHO Autism: Mental Health sessions that occur every 2nd and 4th Monday of the month from 11:30am to 1:00pm beginning October 13, 2025. The training and ECHO sessions are held virtually on Zoom. All program participants commit to attending the kickoff training and at least 75% of the on-going ECHO Autism Sessions.
We can offer this program to a limited number of Missouri licensed mental health clinicians. If you do not provide therapy services for people living in Missouri, we still encourage you to complete the questionnaire so you can be added to a waiting list. If we have openings, we may be able to offer program slots to clinicians who practice outside of Missouri.
