Goal Areas Within the Inspired Kids Programs:
As a multidisciplinary team comprising of professionals from diverse fields such as speech pathology, occupational therapy, psychology, music therapy, art therapy, and education, our collaborative approach is designed to provide comprehensive and integrated support to individuals with diverse needs. By drawing on the expertise of each discipline, we address a broad spectrum of goal areas, ensuring a holistic and individualised approach to our programs. Here's how each discipline contributes to the attainment of specific goal areas:
Speech Pathology:
​
Goal Areas: Communication and Language Skills
​
Speech pathologists focus on enhancing communication skills, including speech, language, and social communication. Goals may involve improving expressive and receptive language, articulation, and pragmatic language skills.
Occupational Therapy:
​
Goal Areas: Motor Skills, Sensory Integration, Independence, Self-Care
​
Occupational therapists work on improving fine and gross motor skills, sensory processing, and activities of daily living (ADLs). Goals may include enhancing coordination, fine motor control, sensory integration, and promoting independence in self-care tasks.
Psychology:
​
Goal Areas: Behaviour, Cognition, Social Interaction
​
Psychologists contribute to programs by addressing behavioural goals, cognitive functioning, and social interaction skills. This may involve implementing behaviour management strategies, cognitive interventions, and social skills training.
Music and Art Therapy:
​
Goal Areas: Communication, Social Interaction, Emotional Expression
​
Music and art therapists focus on creative and expressive modalities to address communication, social interaction, and emotional expression goals. These therapies provide alternative avenues for self-expression and social engagement.
Education:
​
Goal Areas: Play, Social Interaction, Cognition
​
Educators play a crucial role in designing and implementing programs that target cognitive development, play skills, and social interaction. They may use educational strategies to support learning and skill acquisition in various domains.
By integrating these disciplines, we create a comprehensive and dynamic intervention plan that considers the interconnected nature of various developmental aspects. The collaborative efforts of the team ensure that our programs are diverse and inclusive.
