Programs
4 programs
Neurorehabilitative Reading Interventions for Dyslexia - Our sessions are designed to strengthen neurological weaknesses associated with dyslexia. This results in strengthening phonological awareness, improving language processing skills, and closing reading gaps. We offer single sessions, double sessions, as well as half day and full day comprehensives services.
Evaluations - Alabama Game Changers (AGC) can administer evaluations to diagnose dyslexia and dyscalculia. Evaluations can vary depending on the age of the child and the complexity of areas of concern. We can evaluate as young as four with a preliteracy evaluation. We can evaluate as old as twenty one with a college evaluation. In between those ages, we have a variety of evaluations which range from a two hour evaluation to a two day evaluation. Evaluations are options for parents to choose and range based on initial findings at a clients first visit in our medical clinic.
Intensive Program - The intensive program is the fastest program to strengthen a struggling reader with multiple deficits to close academic gaps. Clients participate in two occupational therapy sessions a day, four neurorehabilitative sessions a day, and and recreational therapy over two-six months.
Occupational Therapy - Our occupational therapy (OT) team helps children and young adults build the skills they need to grow, learn, and thrive. We use a hands-on, whole-body approach that supports how the brain and body work together to process and respond to the world around them. When any part of the sensory system isnt working well, everyday activitieslike getting dressed, playing, learning, or making friendscan become more challenging. We offer OT evaluations and therapeutic goals are dependent on the results of evaluations.
