DC SKILLS CENTER – Your child deserves to live their best life

Counseling Service

Growing up and raising kids can indeed be challenging for families, especially during the teenage years when children are going through significant physical, emotional, and social changes. Teenagers may struggle with issues such as peer pressure, identity formation, academic stress, and emotional regulation.

Counselling can be a helpful resource for both teenagers and their parents during this time. Teenage counselling can provide a safe space for teenagers to express their feelings, explore their concerns, and develop coping strategies. It can also help parents better understand their teenagers’ perspectives and learn effective communication and parenting techniques.

It’s important for families to communicate openly, set boundaries, and show empathy and support for each other during this transitional period. Seeking professional help from counsellors, therapists, or support groups can offer valuable guidance and support for families facing challenges during the teenage years. Remember, you are not alone, and there are resources available to help you navigate this journey.

Service Description

Speech Therapy

Our speech therapy services are designed to help students improve their communication skills, addressing issues such as articulation, fluency, and voice disorders. Certified speech therapists work one-on-one with students to develop personalized treatment plans tailored to their specific needs. Therapy sessions incorporate engaging activities and exercises that enhance speech clarity, language comprehension, and overall communication confidence. By fostering better communication abilities, our speech therapy program supports academic success and social integration. Parents are also involved in the process, receiving guidance on how to support their child's progress at home.

Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy at DC Skills Center focuses on helping students develop the fine motor skills, sensory processing abilities, and daily living skills necessary for independence and success. Our occupational therapists conduct thorough assessments to create individualized intervention plans that target each student's unique challenges. Through creative and therapeutic activities, students work on improving coordination, organization, self-care, and adaptive behaviors. The goal is to enhance students' ability to perform everyday tasks, participate fully in school activities, and achieve their personal goals. Parents receive education and resources to reinforce therapy strategies at home, fostering continuous improvement.

Private Sessions

Private counseling sessions provide students and parents with personalized support tailored to their specific emotional, social, and academic needs. Licensed counselors offer a confidential and safe environment where individuals can discuss personal challenges, set goals, and develop coping strategies. These sessions address a wide range of issues, including anxiety, stress, self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and academic pressures. By offering individualized attention, private sessions empower students and parents to overcome obstacles and build resilience. Regular check-ins ensure ongoing support and adaptation of strategies to meet evolving needs.
