Our therapeutic services at Eleina Support are designed to provide comprehensive and tailored support for children ages 10 to 21 who have intellectual and developmental challenges. We realize the specific obstacles that these children may experience, and our therapy approach is based on developing emotional well-being, fundamental life skills, and personal growth. Here is a list of our therapeutic services:
Behavioral and Emotional Support:
Certified behavioral therapists work with our team to create and implement Individualized Behavior Support Plans (IBSP) that are tailored to each child’s individual needs and goals. Emotional Regulation Strategies: Therapeutic approaches emphasize emotional regulation skills, which enable children to understand and manage their emotions in a variety of contexts.
Occupational Therapy:
Life Skills Development: Our occupational therapy services are designed to improve life skills such as self-care, fine motor skills, and daily living activities, while also encouraging independence and self-confidence. Sensory Integration Techniques: Certified occupational therapists use sensory integration strategies to address sensory processing issues, so providing a welcoming atmosphere for optimal learning and involvement.
Speech and Language Therapy:
Speech and language therapy focuses on developing communication skills, expressive and receptive language, and social interaction, allowing children to effectively express themselves. Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC): For children who have communication difficulties, we use AAC tactics and technology to help them communicate and interact with others.
Emotional and Mental Health Support:
Counseling Services: Licensed counselors offer emotional and mental health support to children, providing a safe space for them to express themselves, process emotions, and develop coping mechanisms. Group Therapy Sessions: Group therapy sessions in the residential setting promote peer engagement, communication skills, and the formation of a supportive community.
Social Skills Development:
Structured Social Activities: Therapeutic services include scheduled social activities aimed at developing and improving social skills, as well as encouraging healthy peer relationships and friendships. Peer Modeling and Support: Therapeutic programs include organized social activities that try to develop and improve social skills while also supporting healthy peer relationships and friendships.
Individualized Therapy Plans:
Regular Assessments and Adjustments: Therapists undertake monthly assessments to evaluate progress and change tailored therapy plans as needed, ensuring ongoing assistance that evolves with the child’s needs. Collaboration with Educational and Recreational Services: Therapists work closely with educational and recreational professionals to ensure that therapy goals are integrated into the child’s daily routine and activities.
Our therapeutic services at Eleina Support are more than just interventions; they are an essential component of building an environment in which children can thrive emotionally, socially, and academically. We empower children to negotiate challenges, build resilience, and develop the skills essential for a full and meaningful life by addressing individual needs and promoting a feeling of self-worth.
