Our innovative and comprehensive method combines brain training to target processing (including attention, memory, auditory and visual processing, and processing speed) and academic remediation to focus on reading, math, and writing skills.
This unique intervention allows children to learn better and acquire the necessary strategies and tools to improve academically. We are eager to build a team between therapist-parents-school, to let children reach their full potential. We work closely with parents to provide strategies related to organizational and study skills and emotional readiness for learning, as well as with teachers to provide recommendations for accommodations in the classroom and to have a fluent communication in order to set up goals and expectations for the child.
According to each child’s learning needs, the intervention consists of a combination of programs that allows the brain to work from the root to the problem to the necessary academic skills that are needed in the classroom.

Cuando el niño trabaja con nosotros, estamos ansiosos por tener una comunicación fluida con el maestro para formar un gran equipo para que el niño tenga éxito en la escuela.
Los maestros se sienten seguros de que tienen un sistema de apoyo fuera del aula que se alinea con sus expectativas y metas.
