Programs

As part of your therapy journey your therapist we may recommend some specific therapy programs to assist in achieving your goals including:

We run small social skills groups for children experiencing difficulties fitting in at school or with their peers.

Children learn best through play and this group gives children an opportunity to learn language and develop early play and social skills.


This group helps children develop the necessary social skills to get ready for school whilst continuing to develop language skills.

This group is designed for primary school students who are working on developing their social language skills and interactions with peers.

Run during the school holidays these programs and camps are a great way to boost your child’s therapy participation and meet others.
