Social Skills Sessions

DIR®/FloortimeTM

In our Social Skills Sessions, MPTA uses techniques and strategies from Dr. Stanley Greenspan's DIR®/FloortimeTM model to encourage the child to form positive relationships with their parents, siblings and peers. We begin by creating a safe, playful environment which supports the child's individual emotional, sensory and interactive abilities. The child's intentionality becomes the guide for purposeful engagement as together we produce back-and-forth emotional signaling. This two-way communication serves as a foundation for the creative use of ideas, social problem solving and logical thinking. Intensive parental education and support are provided to continue the relationship-building process within the home and other environments



Allow your child to benefit from our wonderful care.
