Haircuts can be tough for many kids, so we practice them step by step at the clinic! βœ‚οΈ Our toleration sessions focus on helping children feel safe and successful while getting used to the sounds, tools, and sensations of a real haircut. With patience, play, and positive reinforcement, big progress happens! πŸ’›

Turn-taking teaches our clients how to wait, respond to others, and share access to preferred items or activities. All skills that help build meaningful social interactions!

We often begin with familiar adults so clients can learn the routine in a predictable environment. Once the skill is more consistent, we practice it with peers so they can use what they’ve learned during play and social interactions with friends.

Every successful β€œmy turn, your turn” shows progress toward greater social communication! πŸ’™

From fixing cars πŸ”§ to serving sundaes 🍨 β€” the possibilities are endless with pretend play!

Through structured teaching and natural environment play, we help learners to create stories, take on roles, and expand their play themes. This builds joint attention, perspective-taking, language, and social interaction skills, while also promoting generalization across settings!
