Individual Therapy
Individual therapy is one of the core therapies of the UMAP package. 

Each week, clients receive 14 hours of individual therapy designed to target their specific goals. These goals are developed from baseline testing and initial conversations with the client and family. As appropriate, goals target all areas of communication – listening, speaking, reading, writing, memory, cognition, and multimodal communication.

In addition, many of our clients learn to use compensatory strategies to enhance their verbal skills. Examples include using a communication book, drawing, gesturing, and using a palm pilot or iPod. All clients receive a starter communication book, such as a Picture Dictionary, as a part of the therapy program. Clients and caregivers find these individual sessions very beneficial in helping them to regain effective communication strategies.
