How We Deliver Therapy: A Relationship-Based Approach

28.png

At CLDC, how therapy happens matters just as much as what is being taught. 

​

Our speech and occupational therapists use the Developmental, Individualized, Relationship-based (DIR) model, including DIRFloortime principles, to guide how we connect with each child during therapy. 

​

This approach allows us to: 

  • Follow your child's lead and build motivation

  • Strengthen engagement and shared attention

  • Support emotional regulation and connection

  • Create learning moments that feel natural and meaningful

​​

It's not just what we do, it's how we connect. 

Centered on Relationships. Grounded in Progress. 

We believe that play is powerful! Competence should always be presumed and children learn best when they feel understood, safe, and engaged. 

​

By grounding speech and occupational therapy in strong relationships, we help children build the foundational skills they need for communication, learning, and independence. 

“There’s no greater feeling than being understood.”

– Dr. Stanley Greenspan,

Co-founder of the DIRFloortime  Model
