Autism Intervention
Reference and Regulate is a developmental program designed to support Autistic children as they develop foundational communication skills. This program helps children learn to be calm, flexible, and social by focusing on engagement, regulation, and social referencing.
Our sessions are play-based and child-led. This means that we meet the child where they are in terms of development, skills, and preferences. We play to provide intrinsic motivation that promotes spontaneous use of skills. Children first learn to imitate in play and then carry these skills over to eventually language.
Social Thinking & Theory of Mind
Social thinking and theory of mind refer to our ability to consider others’ perspectives, and to adapt our behaviour accordingly. We offer different programs to support your children as they develop these skills. Contact us to find out more about which program is best for your child.
Parent Coaching
Relationship and strength-based parent coaching is currently available in all clinic locations at a reduced rate while coaches complete their course practicum. Parents will be coached to incorporate learning opportunities into daily routines to promote high-quality interactions for building social communication skills and development of self-regulation skills. Coaching is eligible for funding through MCFD and Jordan’s Principle funding sources.
