Individualized treatment is available for children and adults both in-person and remotely to address speech, language, cognitive, and swallowing concerns.

We also work with children and adults without diagnoses who may be looking to improve their skills or engage with others in a supportive setting to practice speech, language, and thinking skills in our Brain Builders Classes.
Brain Builders Classes For Adults
Brain Builders Classes for Adults provide high quality, easily accessible information to adults as they experience normal aging as well as neurologic change.
Classes focus on strategy training for communication and memory, information sharing, reminiscence, and socialization. There is also education for caregivers focusing on support and guidance in dealing with care receivers with cognitive/communication challenges.
Classes are lively and fun and are available in-person throughout the Southcoast region or to anyone on-line.
Classes have been running since 2015 and attendees report feeling empowered with improvements in self-esteem, social connectedness and a willingness to communicate with others. Participants have re-entered the community via social opportunities including community/family events, high school reunions, weekly religious services, volunteerism and correspondence via e-mail, Facebook and Skype, all due to improved socialization skills and gained confidence following class participation.
Brain Builders Classes For Children
Brain Builders Classes for Children support healthy development and social wellness in children of all ages.
Classes for younger children enhance age appropriate speech, language and social skill development through lively, interactive instruction and peer support.
Classes for adolescents focus on social skill development in order to improve self-esteem and self-confidence through the use of good manners.
Parenting tips are also provided in how to interact with/relate to children in order to promote healthy development and good behavior.
