how many times per week were you able to get services through early intervention once you had an asd dx for your child?
anyone got serviced more than 2 sessions per week for a specific therapy? (ot 3x a week)

You definitely can get more. It is based on your child's need and your therapists recommendations

It's easier to get DI then other therapies. So you can get DI and then ask for an SLP, or OT, or PT to fill the slot though it's not guaranteed

currently getting 2x per week di
I want to keep di specifically as di since the therapist is a bcba.
wondering if possible to get 3x a week or I'm dreaming...only worth fighting for if it actually exists.
(also getting pt, speech, and ot already)

I've definitely seen children with a diagnosis get 3x. However it may depend on your agency, some prefer that therapists don't give more than 2x

You can also get ABA or floortime in addition, through your health insurance
