Groups Include

Peer Interaction and Communication

Peer interaction and communication are integral to children’s holistic development, influencing their social, emotional, cognitive, and behavioral growth. Encouraging positive peer interactions and providing opportunities for meaningful social engagement are essential for nurturing well-rounded individuals.

Attention/Hyperactivity Reduction

Reducing attention issues and hyperactivity often involves a multifaceted approach that considers various aspects of a person’s life and environment. Several strategies and techniques that may help include positive reinforcement, structured environments and clear instructions. From The Heart Therapy’s Skill-Based Therapy groups provide these techniques and more.

Sensory Integration

Sensory integration is the process by which the brain organizes and interprets sensory information from the environment and the body. It plays a critical role in a wide range of functions, impacting various aspects of daily life and development. Sensory integration supports physical, cognitive, emotional, and social well-being by enabling individuals to effectively process and respond to sensory stimuli in their environments. Identifying and addressing sensory integration challenges early can lead to improved outcomes and greater independence in daily activities.
