A specific skill to work on
We identify which social or emotional language skill needs attention and how it relates to everyday situations. That gives the teaching and practice a clear purpose.
Working together
How sessions connect teaching with daily life.
45 minutes, usually once a week
Sessions combine structured teaching with time to process real experiences. We follow a curriculum that moves from recognizing to regulating, using engaging visuals and conversation to teach specific skills. Once a skill is learned, we use it to examine what happened, understand it clearly, and plan what he can try next time.
A note after every session
I send the parent, spouse, or client a detailed note with the focus, what we did, why it mattered, and tips for the week.
Parent calls, when appropriate
Every few sessions, we compare what I see with what happens at home and plan how to support the same skills there.
Payment
Private payment
Sessions are private pay. Insurance is not accepted.
