Our clinical approach focuses on using person-centered therapy strategies with our learners!
While we have an array of therapeutic methods, we will only focus on what brings individualized success in the most positive and therapeutic way. It is very important for our learners to feel comfortable in session and focus on behavior goals that are most meaningful to improving their overall quality of life. We are focused on the short-term AND long-term benefits of therapy and will always keep in mind the most sustainable behavior goals for our learners!
What Can I Expect in Services?
1 on 1 Sessions
In 1 on 1 sessions, we will be working on increasing skills and decreasing challenging behaviors. From self-management to motor imitation, in a 1 on 1 session, we provide time and space for individuals to gain skills and learn targeted behaviors. Each individual’s session is uniquely tailored to their specific learning needs. These sessions can last anywhere from 1 to 4 hours, depending on the level of therapy needed.
Parent/ Guardian Coaching
The goal of the parent support, or guardian coaching sessions, is to teach those who will be most involved with the learner exactly how to deal with behaviors outside of therapy. We use a combination of presentations, in person modeling, and detailed explanations to make sure you understand how to teach a skill or handle a behavior.
“Check-in” Sessions
Sometimes, you or the individual may need a bit of extra support. Our check in sessions usually last 30 minutes and are focused on making sure that the skills and behaviors learned in therapy are being used outside of the session. These sessions are also used to identify any changes in the environment or current barriers that may be affecting therapy progress.
Social Group Sessions
When possible, Project Odyssey offers social groups for children, teens, and adults in which the participants work on social skills and adaptive behaviors together. This format is a very unique therapy, in that they are learning together, in an inclusive group.
