Each session is one-one-one with the child, but I encourage those involved in the child's life (i.e. parents, teachers, caregivers, etc.) to observe some therapy sessions and be involved in what goals are being targeted in therapy. I also provide ideas and materials to reinforce what is covered in therapy sessions, so these skills can also be addressed at home and in the school setting.
