The first step we take is to perform a comprehensive evaluation which may include informal and formal assessments to determine what the underlying issues may be. The results guide our next steps.

We use a holistic, strengths based and child led approach in treatment sessions. Providing a nurturing and supportive environment allows each child to reach their individual goals while simultaneously increasing their confidence.

Communication and collaboration with parents, educators and healthcare professionals on the child's team is an integral component of our practice which ultimately enhances each child's success.
