Lizard Essentials Program
Our Lizard Essentials Program is designed to grow your child’s skills, build their capacity and tolerance, and restore family balance.
What common skills does this program teach?
Families who join our Lizard Essentials Program are looking for immediate help to effectively teach new skills or manage behaviours. We will work with you to achieve your goals through your daily interactions with your child. Common parental goals are to:
- Build communication and social skills for engaging with parents, family members, teachers and peers.
- Teach your child improved toleration, to manage those everyday disappointments and ambiguities.
- Develop a more consistent daily routine with activities such as toileting, mealtimes and sleep.
- Strengthen your parent-child relationship and restore balance in your daily interactions.
How does it work?
Our Lizard Essentials Program is designed to teach your child foundational life skills and to restore family balance and reduce the emergence of problem behaviours.
The program requires your Therapy Supervisor to work closely with you for the duration of the program. Therapy sessions are typically held in home or via tele-health if you choose.
What will you need?
Our Lizard Essentials Program is suited to families who have availability for weekly sessions, and a desire to take a hands-on role in implementing the program with their child.
How our programs work
Our programs are based on the latest evidence-based practices to achieve the best results.
We start each program by teaching the three foundational “learning to learn” skills of communication, toleration and collaboration.
Based on the child and family needs, we then deliver a tailored program of learning on new life skills such as communication, self-care, and social skills.
