Our Services
Behavioral Assessments:
Our comprehensive assessments provide an in-depth understanding of each child’s strengths and areas for growth. Using evidence-based tools, our team identifies specific needs and sets measurable goals. These evaluations form the foundation for individualized treatment plans designed to maximize progress.
1:1 Therapy:
Children receive personalized support through one-to-one sessions with trained therapists. Services are provided in the home, school, or community to ensure consistency across environments. Each session is tailored to the child’s goals, promoting meaningful skill development and lasting progress.
Social Skills Groups:
Children participate in guided group activities that encourage communication, cooperation, and friendship-building. With support from experienced facilitators, children practice essential social skills in a safe and structured setting. These groups help foster confidence, peer relationships, and long-term social success.
Parent Training:
We partner with families to provide practical strategies that encourage growth at home and in the community. Parents gain tools to manage challenging behaviors, reinforce positive skills, and support ongoing development. This collaboration strengthens progress and ensures that skills learned in therapy extend beyond sessions.
