Clinical Programs

The Foundation Schools' Clinical Program consists of a variety of interventions to meet the specific educational, behavioral and therapeutic needs of each individual student. These services are based on the goals and objectives identified in each student’s Individual Education Plan (IEP) and include the following:

Individual therapy: Individual therapy is provided on a weekly basis and addresses behavioral, emotional, and academic concerns that impact a student’s functioning in school and at home. Individual therapy sessions focus on student’s social-emotional goals indicated on their IEP and provide students with ongoing support.

Group Therapy: Students have group therapy three times a week. Group therapy sessions are designed to facilitate students learning communication and coping skills. Group modules have been developed to provide structured learning activities including group discussions, role-plays, and expressive therapy activities. The modules include such topics as the following:

• Social Skills
• Listening and Communication Skills
• Relationships
• Feelings Awareness
• Who Am I
• Bullies, Targets, and Bystanders
• Chemical Dependency Prevention
• Chemical Dependency Education
  

Parent Meetings: Parent groups meet twice a month and focus on topics related to parenting and issues affecting school behaviors. The goal of parent groups is to develop a collaborative effort between home and school that facilitates students’ emotional and educational growth.
