Why Choose SSPS?
Family Participation
Caregiver involvement is vital. We make sure that all persons involved in each child’s life feel included and comfortable with all aspects of treatment. It’s not our job to delegate, its our job to listen and work together.
Child Centered Treatment
We firmly believe in the power of utilizing a child's strengths and emerging skills to drive treatment outcomes toward immediate success. We understand that every child is unique, with their own set of abilities and potential, and it is through recognizing and harnessing these strengths that we can help them thrive.
Building a strong team through talent and collaboration
With a steadfast commitment to excellence, our team is fully dedicated to supporting you and your family at every step of your journey. From the initial treatment planning stage to providing parent coaching, attending your child's IEP meetings, and facilitating social engagement opportunities within the community, we are here to ensure that you receive the comprehensive support and guidance you require.
