- Expect to be contacted without delay to discuss a 'Meet & Greet' appointment* to help determine a group match/placement for your
child. The fee for this informal intake evaluation is $90 guarantees that your child's name will be kept on our wait list while a group is actively sought for one year.
Note: In the event a group match is not immediately available for your student, individual sessions are strongly encouraged. A great deal can be addressed (and in many cases addressed more appropriately) during one on one time. Please do not assume that "social" can only be taught in a group, especially beyond grade one.

How therapy groups are organized:
- During the school year, social groups will begin in mid September and run through mid June. Summer program runs late June through mid August.
- Social Groups are carefully
arranged according to student match regarding social, cognitive and behavioral ability and fill up quickly. Size is limited to 2-4 students. These after school & Saturday sessions are 60 minutes in length. The first 45 minutes are for direct
instruction with students and the final 10-15 minutes are spent in parent/caregiver
consult. Carry-over assignments and activities are offered during the parents' time and are an important link to improving social competence in every day situations.
- 24 hour notice is required if your child will be missing a session.
- Families will be allowed 1 absence per semester; beyond this, charges will apply to missed sessions.
- Make-up sessions are available on a limited basis - please check with your therapist.
- Continuing students do not need to repeat an intake assessment.
- Individual sessions for speech/language therapy are scheduled on a
month by month basis, usually
once per week for 45-60 minutes.
