SCHOOL AGE

School becomes the primary focus once children are attending full day, and provides opportunities for cognitive and academic growth, as well as social skill building with peers. It can be challenging as expectations increase in both school and home, which can result in challenging behavior. Treatment goals will be focused on the individual child, their skills, and ability to follow along with peers.
