They also play a crucial role in fostering secure attachment by supporting emotional regulation and helping children build meaningful connections with caregivers and peers.

PTs also encourage participation in community activities, supporting children in connecting with others through play and leisure.

By exploring learning styles, behavior, and attention patterns, the psychologist can help identify how cognitive factors, executive functioning, or neurodivergent traits may play a role in a child’s experience. Together with the child and family, they develop strengths-based, individualized support plans that honor each child’s unique way of engaging with the world. The psychologist may also offer family counseling to enhance well-being and nurture positive relationships, fostering an affirming and inclusive environment for the child.
Speech-Language Pathologists
Speech-Language Pathologists (S-LPs) are skilled guides in the art of communication, helping children find their unique voice and connect with the world around them. Through engaging activities, they support children in expressing their wants, needs, and ideas, while also helping them understand spoken language and the non-verbal cues they encounter, like body language and facial expressions. S-LPs also focus on articulation, helping children shape their speech sounds clearly and accurately, and work on motor planning to ensure smooth, coordinated speech movements. Additionally, they help children navigate the complexities of social language, building the skills necessary for friendships and positive social interactions. By fostering these essential abilities, S-LPs also contribute to the development of secure attachment, strengthening children’s relationships with caregivers and peers. With their expertise, S-LPs empower children to communicate confidently, express themselves fully, and build meaningful connections.
Teachers
