Does your child need support socially interacting with their peers?

Our Social Skills Groups allow children to learn and practice social skills with peers of similar age and ability levels in a structured environment. These groups provide structure and predictability where children will work in small groups to promote comfort. Groups are carefully organized to ensure compatibility to promote social success.

Social Skills Groups allow children to develop age-appropriate social skills, such as:

  • Taking turns

  • Understanding body language and facial expressions

  • Expressing emotions

  • Initiating interactions

  • Gaining self-control

  • Problem-solving

  • Holding age-appropriate conversations with peers

  • Coping with challenging situations

  • Maintaining relationships

These social skills are necessary life-long skills utilized in school, extracurricular activities, in friendships, and other real-life situations. Not only do our Social Skills Groups foster self-awareness and self-esteem, but they also help to build a solid foundation for children to make and maintain rewarding relationships throughout different stages of life.

Social Skills Groups are available in school for $100 per session.

Neurodiversity is the idea that each individual develops differently. These differences are sometimes seen as disabilities, but they are normal neurological differences between people. Students with neurological difference are unique individuals with needs that can be accommodated.

 

Neurodiverse students who are twice exceptional are those who are highly gifted academically and meet the standards for gifted and talented programs, but also present with a neurodivergent disability: Attention Deficit disorder (ADHD or ADD), Autism spectrum disorder, learning disabilities, sensory processing disorder or any other disability. These students tend to go unidentified in schools. Students may be high academic achieving but may have one or more difficulties with executive functioning. HTC specializes in working with these students across settings where many other professionals may not fully understand how to support.

The Ultimate Goal:

The goal is to support each child where they are at. Acknowledging their STRENGTHS and working through difficulties with compassions and understanding to achieve consistent change.

We want students be intrinsically motivated to learn. Before students with sensory and/or executive functioning difficulties can be intrinsically motivated they may need extra support. Extrinsically motivating students can start by focusing on good behavior and rewarding good behavior each time it happens.

One-on-one support is available in school for $100 per session.
