"Where One Connection
Leads To Another"
One to One
Play Sessions
The in-home play-based session aims to help each child develop the foundations needed for connecting with others. We begin by building a trusting relationship guided by the child's interests and individual profile and creating a comfort zone where a back-and-forth flow can occur. Building a relationship in an environment where a child feels safe, made to feel accepted, understood, and respected is most productive for learning and growing. As the flow of engagement begins through co-regulation, shared joy, and connection, opportunities are created to experience shared problem-solving, explore emotions, and expand the imagination.

Sessions include videotaping, upon approval, to create an individual profile, reflect, identify goals, and document progress. Additional support may include weekly Zoom sessions and emails with parents for parent training.
