We could never
learn to be brave
and patient if
there were only
joy in the
world.

Social/Group Therapy
" Every child deserves the opportunity to
reach their full potential"
       We offer classes designed to meet the social and developmental needs of children with
neurologically based developmental disorders.  The focus will be on increasing appropriate play
with peers.  Skill training will be provided in areas of turn taking, sharing, waiting, and initiating
interactions.  A wide variety of sensory activities, motor planning activities and movement will
allow the child to engage in fun activities while focusing  on social and emotional development
needed to establish and maintain friendships.  
Social and Handwriting Groups
    Our Sessions are designed to meet the social and developmental needs of your child.  Each
week will offer a different theme along with a variety of sensory activities, balance activities,
and motor planning activities.  We are currently accepting registration for our
Social and Handwriting Groups at our two clinics designed specifically
for your child.
