About Us.
Welcome to Autism Services at LCC! As professionals in the field for over a decade, we understand how overwhelming an Autism diagnosis can be. Whether your child has recently been diagnosed or you’ve been navigating through this journey for a while, the options can feel endless and the process daunting. From the very first phone call, we strive to be a resource for you and your child.
We serve the Knoxville and the Tri-cities area and provide services for children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder and other related developmental disorders. All our programs are based on the principles and evidence-based practices of Applied Behavior Analysis.
The spectrum of Autism and other developmental delays is quite extensive and each of our approaches are created to meet the needs of each individual child. We work one-on-one with your child at their pace to improve communication skills and guide challenging behavior, rewriting the story of what’s possible for their future.
We are currently offering ABA services in-home, in-school, and in-clinic.
We are working on offering social skills groups and parenting classes in the future to further meet the needs of our community. Visit our Support Groups page for more information.
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), simply stated, is a research-based style of teaching and learning. It involves using techniques such as prompting, fading, shaping, and reinforcement of your child’s behavior. ABA can be used to teach a variety of skills, such as increasing language development, social skills, coping skills, and alternative behaviors in place of problem behaviors.

Dr. Evette Addai
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Accepting new clients! Are you or your child finding it hard to cope with a medical diagnosis? Are you noticing changes where your child is having more tantrums, cannot follow instructions unless you repeat yourself, seems to be overthinking, spends more time in their room, or blows up over small things? We can work together to use evidence-based solutions to improve stress, change behaviors, and help create a hopeful future for you and/or your child. I have worked with many youth, adults, and families around healing from burnout, finding space for self-care when there's little time, and dealing with larger social stressors related to race/ethnicity, gender, or sexual orientation.
