Playtime Connections 1
Program Basis
We teach our clients how to be more successful in social settings. Participants will acquire the social skills they need to interact with others as well as the ability to think socially
At SLS, we teach the thoughts behind the social skills, helping our clients to see how their actions and behaviors influence others. Many of the concepts and activities we use in therapy are based on the work of award-winning experts in the areas of Social Thinking ® and social communication, including Michelle Garcia Winner and Leah Kuypers (The Zones of Regulation ®) as well as incorporate language enriched activities that will break down and teach abstract social-thinking to students.
