Getting Started

GVLC completes a thorough assessment of each child to get a complete picture of the child’s abilities and family circumstances and concern. 

Based on the assessment, we develop an individualized treatment plan that reflects the child’s unique needs. Skill acquisition programs can include (but are not limited to) communication, play, self-care (toileting, dressing, showering, etc.), social skills, school readiness. As needed, Functional Behavioral Assessment (FBA) are conducted and Behavior Intervention Plans (BIP) are developed.  

Intervention focuses on building age-appropriate skills to help young children meet critical developmental milestones. 

Technicians collect real-time data during therapy sessions to track each child’s progress and to identify which therapies are working best. This data is shared with parents, and therapies may be adjusted based on data to continue or alter treatment.

Using play-based and naturalistic teaching techniques, therapists work with the child to improve communication, play, self-care, social, and school readiness skills.
