The Ely Center is an evolving social-communication therapy
center which features speech and language therapy, occupational
therapy, dance/movement, exercise and nutrition training. Our mission
is to enhance each client’s health and wellness. We achieve
this by working as a team to explicitly teach and facilitate the
individual client’s social language development, language processing,
sensory, fine and gross motor, nutrition, and physical conditioning
needs. Pragmatic language processing deficits impact academic performance
as well as social communication abilities, across the curriculum
in school and through social interactions within the individual’s
community. Our program features dialogue with staff regarding service
delivery/treatment motives, methods, and outcomes for this unique
and fast growing neurologically challenged population.
Mission Statement:
At The Ely Center, we strive to create an environment that
is best suited to introduce, establish, and hone the foundation
skills of social communication via a functional-interactive training
program from the training perspective of the Speech and Language
Pathologist. We believe that the individuals we service, regardless
of their diagnosis (Asperger’s Syndrome, Nonverbal Learning
Disability, PDD-NOS, Language Learning Disability, or no diagnosis),
will make substantial gains, when provided with:
• A small group (3-6 students)
• A homogeneous environment of same type peers
• Clearly stated objectives
• Flexibility
• Creativity
• A high degree of home to private practice communication
• A holistic approach to pragmatic language processing, health,
and wellness
Each treatment session is carefully planned, keeping in mind that
the students we service, typically need skill building and reinforcement
in the following areas:
• Sensory Integration
• Executive Functioning
• Social-Communication Skills |
