Combining play and parent coaching, we provide early intervention services to help children develop communication and social skills such as:

We specialize in Orton-Gillingham  — a multi-sensory approach addressing your child's reading and writing needs. This specialized reading instruction engages all of the student's senses to help with learning, including seeing, feeling, hearing, and moving. Literacy therapy will help your child improve skills such as:

​

  • reading comprehension

  • spelling and sound-letter correspondence

  • writing
