Children are often as diverse in their needs, abilities, and challenges as adults. You often see the more severe challenges, such as high level autism, severe ADHD, or other challenges of similar merit, but the lower level challenges are often left unseen. A child can be selective in their communication and it causes delays in their learning, or they may become overwhelmed by sounds or demands or even lights and just need help learning how to navigate their learning despite those triggers. As someone who have worked with children of various support needs, I ensure that your child will be in safe hands. I focus on helping them cope with stresses, and acquire new skills they previously found difficult by breaking them down and making them easier to learn, and by advocating for their needs and teaching them how to advocate for themselves. Some of the teachable skills include: learning how to ask for things, labeling things (nouns, actions, prepositions, etc.), fine and gross motor skills, answering questions, describing pictures, learning simple mathematics and language skills, social skills during play and communication, learning coping skills such as: breathing exercises, learning to ask for a break, not engaging in challenging behaviors or tantrums and instead learning to ask for what they need. Skills are all taught in a natural environment that helps maintain the child's sense of safety, as well as help them progress in their learning and apply the skills to their immediate environment.
