Summer Social Language Groups

Our social groups are therapist-guided interactions with children of similar ages.  These sessions are designed to continue the speech and language goals your child has been working on throughout the year and apply them with the added social aspect of communication in the group. We work on conversational rules such as greetings, topic transitioning, and turn taking to name a few. These rules are the foundations to building friendships and becoming an effective communicator.  If you are interested in receiving additional information about our groups please feel free to give our office a call.

Zones of Regulation Group

If your child struggles with self-regulation then is for you. Children that struggle to regulate themselves often have trouble with management of emotions, impulsivity, and self awareness of their emotions.  Our goal is to teach your child how to become aware of their emotions, provide tools to use for regulation, and help them learn how to display these emotions in a socially appropriate manner.  We work on coordinating their sensory processing, executive functioning, and emotional regulation to successfully self-regulate.  This program meets two times per week, along with periodic parent workshops to teach you the strategies and goals your child is learning so that you feel confident carrying over the techniques to reinforce at home and in other environments.
