Educational Therapy techniques stimulate cognitive and academic weaknesses to help develop more efficient functioning and accurate thinking skills. the goal of educational therapy is to equip students to succeed in the classroom and in life as independent learners. Students in educational therapy are released from the classroom for a predetermined number of sessions per week and are typically enrolled in therapy for an average of three or more years.
A full, individual evaluation, which may be an additional cost, is required prior to enrollment into the educational therapy program. Educational testing must be kept current, usually no more than three years old, to remain enrolled for program and support services.
