Our Goal
Our Goal...
Our goal is to support the needs of each individual client by promoting their confidence, independence, emotional development, communication skills, or any areas of need in a fun, safe, calm and consistent environment.
In collaboration with the family’s support, we often use group instruction to target sensitive topics rather than target what one individual may be going through to better support them in a healthy, judgement free setting.
We use laughter and games to build meaningful connections and friendships. Listening can be hard but having fun is a great way to get to know one another and bond without all the social awkwardness and complexities of social interactions (i.e eye contact).
Participants are always encouraged to try new things, often surpassing even their own expectations. Positive praise, proactive measures, and natural reinforcers are all ways we work together to achieve our goals.
As a society, we tend to do two thing: focus on the problem and moving too fast.
Our goals:
1) Work to their strengths, not their weaknesses. 2) Slow down and listen. Allow for processing time (give them a chance to process the information and answer you, not everything has to be so immediate). Remember: All behaviours are a form of communication!
