Individualized Intervention for Social Cognition and Pragmatic Language*
Increasingly, we are working with children who have social cognitive and communication deficits, yet their needs are not captured through standardized testing. For many of these children, the missing piece is to identify the unseen challenges that impact their success.
Our informal, dynamic assessment allows us to go beyond typical assessments to really dig down and understand where the breakdown is occurring. We provide an in-depth look at:
- Initiation of Communication
- Listening Skills
- Abstract and Inferential Language
- Perspective Taking
- Understanding the "Big Picture"
- Narrative Language
- Humor
- Relating to Others
- Self Awareness
- Emotional Self Regulation
- Executive Functioning
This assessment is an in-depth process conducted by a speech language pathologist and developmental specialist with more than 40 years of combined expertise in developmental relationship-based intervention and training in social cognition methodologies. It includes a parent interview, input from teachers, and the double interview technique for learning about our client's strengths and needs.
Our assessment includes a detailed report with a customized plan for recommendations both educationally and therapeutically.
*Based on evidence based methodologies by Social Thinking®
