How do I begin services for my child?
Contact us directly through our website or by phone. We'll guide you through our intake process, which includes gathering background information, discussing your child's needs, and scheduling an initial consultation with our clinical team.
Where do therapy sessions take place?
Services are delivered in your home, our clinic, or in the community — depending on your child's needs and treatment plan. As your child progresses, settings may expand to support generalization of skills.
Is funding available for services?
Many families access support through Alberta's FSCD (Family Support for Children with Disabilities) program or extended health benefits. We're happy to help guide you through funding options that may apply to your family — please contact us to discuss your situation.
