Services Offered
Relationship Development Information® for children in the Autism Spectrum: A consultative parent-based approach that addresses the core deficits of autism, developed by Drs. Steve Gutstein and Rachelle Sheely of The Connections Center in Houston. Click on the RDI® tab for more information. www.rdiconnect.com. Mental Health Counseling: Therapy services to address a multitude of emotional needs for children and adults. We prefer and use a cognitive-behavioral approach primarily with play therapy techniques for children incorporated as well. Specializing in Children and Families: Children are the focus at Family Learning Solutions, although at times the family and/or other family members including adults need additional help as well. Education Combining Counseling: To be more successful in school, educational strategies as well as counseling to address related issues at home and school are often needed. We have the background to offer both and in conjunction when needed. Special Needs Focus: We have experience with many different special needs and are, therefore, equipped to especially address any type of disability or learning need. Behavior and Discipline Planning: If behavior problems are a recurring theme, then assistance in developing a behavior management plan can and will be provided. Our philosophy is about working together to ensure success with a positive behavior support plan. Educational Assessment: Before beginning any type of educational intervention, an educational assessment is administered. This provides information on instructional levels in reading, writing and math; a brief screening to determine ability/aptitude; diagnostic interpretation of strengths and weaknesses in each academic area; and if needed, further processing assessment and checklists on behavior, attention, and sensory needs. A follow-up consultation, along with a report, are provided to summarize all of the above and provide recommendations and an interventions plan that addresses your child's specific strengths and weaknesses in learning. Although we can diagnose a learning disability or dyslexia, we can identify red flags and point you in the right direction if further evaluation is needed. Consultation is also available, if needed, to meet with parents for further assistance and to work with your child's school by attending teacher conferences, staffings, or IEP meetings if requested. Early Intervention Services: We are providers in the Early Steps network in Polk County. We provide home-based services to children with developmental delays and their families to assist them in learning how to best help their children in meeting their potential. Educational Therapy: At Family Learning Solutions, LLC, every child is an individual and is treated as such. We go beyond traditional tutoring. We offer cognitive therapy that targets the underlying processes in the brain that can be affecting learning. Instead of bandaiding the problem, we go below the problem and strengthen it at its source. Our learning interventions are prescriptive because a plan is developed to meet your child's specific needs; our counseling sessions and groups also keep every child and their unique situation foremost in our minds as we work to provide effective assistance. Social Skills Groups - Social skills such as making conversations, maintaining friendships, joining in, playing games, attending to and working with a partner, being a good sport, and working collaboratively do not come easily to some children. We have weekly groups to work on these skills as well as develop friendships in a fun, relaxed setting. Although many of these children have High Functioning Autism or Asperger's; others are just shy children or those struggling with peer relationships who can use some help in forming positive relationships. Groups for all ages, from 3 and up, are available and if we do not have one that suits you, we will work to develop one for you.
