Mission Statement
	The mission of Kaleidoscope Therapy Center is to provide the highest quality of mental health services possible.
	We now offer:
	Individual Therapy for adults and children, Psychological Evaluations, and Social Skills Groups.
	What is a social skills group?
Kaleidoscope Therapy Center offers two types of social skills groups for children between the ages of 3 and 18. One group is for children diagnosed on the Autism spectrum while the other is for children that have a non-spectrum mental health diagnosis. Children are placed in groups with same aged peers. Each group consists of no more than 10 children. Groups run for 12 consecutive weeks and meet twice a week with each session lasting two hours. Our clinicians will be available during all sessions and provide direct supervision of the groups when needed. They will design the treatment plans, track progress made and conduct family progress meetings twice per 12-week session. The goals of the social skills groups are to increase positive interactions with peers, promote sharing and turn taking, develop appropriate social and communication skills, increase compliance, and promote independence.
