Supporting Parents, Empowering Children
At Development Therapy, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive support for parents of children with emotional regulation challenges. Our services are designed to empower both parents and children, fostering emotional well-being, improved focus, and enhanced self-regulation skills. Through personalized guidance and evidence-based techniques, we help families navigate the unique journey of raising children who may struggle with sitting still, attending to directions, and managing their emotions while promoting independence and developing a range of OT skills.
Social Skills Class
Our social skills classes, led by experienced occupational therapists, provide a supportive environment where children develop essential social skills. Through structured activities and guided interactions, they enhance communication, cooperation, problem-solving, and empathy. Classes promote self-confidence, belonging, and positive self-image. Children form connections with peers, leading to increased social engagement. Our nurturing environment fosters social skill development and meaningful relationships.
Our social skills classes offer numerous benefits. Children learn to navigate social interactions, improve communication skills, and understand non-verbal cues. They practice and refine these skills in a supportive setting. Classes provide peer support, enhancing social engagement and a sense of belonging. Our nurturing environment fosters essential social skills, self-confidence, and meaningful relationships.
