Christine Stanton Petersen - Professional Summary:

Christine Stanton Petersen, MS, CCC-SLP, owns and operates a private practice specializing in the treatment of speech-language and social cognition disorders. Located in the Irvine area of California since 1996, her practice centers primarily on children with high-functioning autism, Asperger’s syndrome, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and anxiety disorders. Christine Stanton Petersen consults with local schools, bringing her Circle of Friends treatment modality to their special education programs in an effort to promote the inclusion of, and interaction with, children suffering from socialization deficiencies, immature play skill development, and language delays.
