New Programs Now Offered

We are excited that we are now able to offer many new programs at our larger location. Upcoming events are located separately in the 'Upcoming Events' area on this blog. We plan to offer parent and professional education opportunities at least once a month. If there is a topic you would like us to present just let us know by commenting on the blog or contacting our office.

New specialized programs this Fall include the following:

Funfood - Feeding and cooking groups for the picky eater. This group is designed to allow kids to explore the sensory aspects of varying foods and work toward expanding food preferences.
Social Skills Groups - led by a speech language pathologist, these groups are aimed at developing pragmatic communication skills. Children are grouped according to age and ability.
SOCIALS - these are language and social skills development classes for the preschooler and young school age child who are having difficulty learning these skills in a larger classroom setting.
Pencil Pals - a handwriting group designed to target the developmental skills needed for success in handwriting.
Individual Intensive Sensory Integration Treatment
Support Groups
- these groups are designed for teens with specific diagnoses, such as Attention Deficit Disorder and Sensory Processing Disorder, to have an opportunity to discuss topics specific to them with peers with similar experiences.
Interactive Metronome/ Sensory Movement - These are intensive (3-5 times a week) individual or small group sessions designed to address the needs of children with sensory processing challenges.
