Supporting the academic, social, and emotional aspects of learning

Partnering with schools, parents, and other professionals, our team supports the academic, social, and emotional aspects of learning. Our coordinated services combine educational and therapeutic approaches.

We conduct school-based observations to look at the learning, social, and emotional behaviors of your child during classroom time, recess, lunch, transitions, and other social activities. Our observations and recommendations are always reviewed with parents first. Then, we collaborate with parents, school personnel, and other professionals to best support the child’s unique needs.

  • Academic self-esteem and motivation
  • Social skills in the classroom setting
  • Attention, organizational, and study skills
  • Language processing or sensory processing
