Autism Learning Disabilities

SCERTS is the innovative approach that offers a practical framework for developing specific goals and intervention programming for children with autism learning disabilities.

The SCERTS framework guides our practice to ensure we are providing families with a functional and purposeful approach to therapy. SCERTS focuses on Social Communication, Emotional Regulation, and Transactional Supports, key areas that are essential in supporting the unique needs of individuals with autism and learning disabilities.

The Scerts Model respects and recognises individual differences across a range of ages and developmental abilities based on the understanding of a child’s strengths and needs.

It directly addresses the core challenges faced by children with autism learning disabilities, and other learning disabilities. Progress is measured in everyday functional activities; our therapy approach recognises the absolute necessity for supporting communication and socio-emotional development in everyday activities and routines.

Our therapy strategies are specifically designed to support children with autism learning disabilities and help them thrive in various environments.

How SCERTS Supports Children with Autism Learning Disabilities

Our therapists take a functional and social-emotional approach to therapy to maximise your child’s functional abilities, including their ability to communicate and regulate their emotional state.

Through tailored interventions, we aim to enhance the overall development of children facing autism learning disabilities.

As part of the therapy plan we address any concerns related to sensory processing within a functional context and offer families a number of innovative therapy strategies to help meet their child’s sensory needs.

Our therapists are specialists in addressing sensory processing disorder and behaviours related to sensory vulnerabilities in children with autism learning disabilities.
