Regulated Parents in Action
Come move, play, and learn with us! In this hands-on parent training series, we will dive into strategies to help regulate our children through the power of our own self-regulation. We will provide education and experiential opportunities
to help us understand how to use ourselves and the parent-child relationship to regulate our children. Each week we
will cover a topic that incorporates the use of sensory regulation, mindfulness, and yoga to positively influence our regulation so that we can approach parenting from a place
of fullness and abundance rather than emptiness and burnout. Parents will have practical tools to incorporate right away into daily life.
When: Tuesdays
Time: 6:00-7:00 pm

Circle of Security® Parenting™ Group
The Circle of Security® Parenting™ program is based on decades of research about how secure parent-child relationships can be supported and strengthened and helps us make sense of what our children are really asking from us. This is a 10-week course that utilizes video clips to present information about The Circle as well as examples of parents using The Circle with their children. Groups are a mix of watching video clips to learn new concepts and discussing and reflecting on our own experiences. This program is appropriate for all parents, those looking to learn a bit more, those who are struggling in their relationship with their child, as well as new parents, foster and adoptive parents!
Diagnostic and Psychological Testing
How do I know if my child needs an evaluation?
​
You might consider an evaluation if you are concerned your child has attention, social-emotional, mood, or behavioral difficulties. An evaluation can also be helpful if you have concerns about your child’s development. We are able to assess for specific diagnosis including:
​
-
Autism
-
ADHD
-
Intellectual Function (included gifted and twice exceptional learners)
You may also consider an evaluation if you do not know what is wrong or you are not sure how to help.
​
Why seek an assessment at Children's Therapy Network?
​
We understand unique interplay between trauma and development for a child. We use this lens to inform our assessment in order to gather a complete picture of your child’s unique diagnostic profile. Because we are an interdisciplinary clinic, at your request, we are able to combine psychological testing with occupational, physical and speech therapy assessments to complete the picture of your child’s development.
​
How is this different from an OT or speech evaluation?
​
A diagnostic evaluation is completed to look at the bigger picture and provide a diagnosis, if appropriate. This can be helpful to guide treatment. An occupational/speech therapy evaluation is completed to look at current functioning in specific areas in order to provide treatment. A diagnostic evaluation may include a referral for an occupational/speech therapy evaluation for more information, or may be completed at the same time as an occupational/speech therapy evaluation.
What does a typical assessment look like?
We start with a phone screening to determine whether a full diagnostic assessment is right for you. Then you can expect 3-4 more appointments at Children’s Therapy Network to include:
-
An initial parent meeting to collect pertinent information and plan for the in-person assessment of the child
-
Assessment of the child- depending on the age and areas assessed this could take between 2-8 hours. It may be broken up into 2 days.
-
A follow up meeting with the parents to review the assessment and make recommendations
