Our Approach
A Neuroaffirmative Approach
We believe every child deserves to be understood, supported, and celebrated for who they are. That’s why our therapy approach is:
-
Child-led – following their interests to keep engagement high
-
Strengths based – building on what they do well
-
Neuroaffirmative – respecting differences, not trying to “fix” them
