Social Skills Therapy

Our multidisciplinary team of speech-language pathologists and occupational therapists are experienced in addressing social communication disorders. Key features of our program include:

  • Our skilled therapists conduct a comprehensive assessment to identify specific areas of challenge in social communication. This may include difficulties with nonverbal cues, understanding social norms, initiating and maintaining conversations, and more.

  • Based on the assessment, we collaborate with clients and their families to establish personalized, achievable goals. These goals target specific social skills that are essential for building meaningful relationships.

  • Our therapy sessions incorporate evidence-based techniques to address various aspects of social communication. This may involve role-playing, social scripts, video modeling, and interactive activities to practice and reinforce social skills in a supportive environment. Our multidisciplinary approach ensures effective and meaningful treatment.

  • Group sessions provide a structured and supportive setting for individuals to practice social skills in real-life scenarios. This format encourages peer interaction, collaboration, and the generalization of learned skills to diverse social contexts.

  • We actively involve parents and caregivers in the therapeutic process, providing guidance on how to reinforce social skills at home and in daily activities.
