Clinic-Based Services
Building Skills in a Structured Social Setting
At Continuum, our clinic-based services are provided in a group setting with one-to-one Therapist support for children and adolescents. Our clinics are designed to help clients foster social interactions while learning positive behavioral routines. Therapists work individually with our clients, under direct and constant supervision from their Consultant. Activities are designed to be child-focused, and the heart of our therapeutic interventions focuses on building both independent and group skills.
Our Approach to Clinic Services
Our clinic locations provide individualized programming for learners and focus on teaching social skills, play skills, social communication, emotional regulation, and more! Within our locations, the clinics are structured as Early-Intervention settings and will include daily routines to prepare learners to enter the academic setting. Your learner will have access to clinicians who are trained in all evidence-based practices including, but not limited to, practical functional assessment (PFA), skill-based treatments (SBT), assent withdrawal and trauma-informed care. Instruction focuses on learning school-readiness skills, following group instruction, and participating in daily group activities. Additionally, we focus on play-based learning to ensure all sessions are fun and enjoyable for our learners!
