Counselling
Crafting a personalized program can greatly benefit a child navigating social and behavioural challenges. Through a comprehensive background assessment and thorough parental interview, we identify each child's strengths and areas needing support. Subsequently, tailored goals are established, and we guide the child through an individualized program to achieve these objectives. Our interventions target specific factors to enhance the child's coping skills in both school and daily life. Additionally, parents and educators play pivotal roles in supporting the child's behaviour, fostering positive interactions, and facilitating a conducive environment for their growth and development.
We are proud to be recognized for our services.

Group Sessions (Dates TBD)
Group Learning
In our group sessions, children engage in various tasks and activities designed to enhance their social-communication, play, cognitive, and group participation skills. Each child is assigned specific social skill goals to work on throughout the weekly sessions. With the support and encouragement of adults, children have the opportunity to practice these skills with their peers. We employ a range of teaching methods including modeling, role-playing, visual aids, and direct instruction to effectively teach and reinforce these skills in a supportive and interactive setting.
Parent Advocacy
Supporting Parents
Parenting a child with educational, behavioral, social-emotional, or mental health challenges can be incredibly overwhelming. Understanding and interpreting your child's behaviours can be particularly tough, leaving you feeling uncertain about how to best support them. As a specialist in providing personalized recommendations and understanding for parents of children with special needs, I'm here to help. My aim is to assist parents in navigating the unique world surrounding their child's differences by offering tailored support and encouragement every step of the way.
