In addition to therapy services, Children's Choice For Therapy, Inc. offers comprehensive psychological services including social skills therapy/classes. Dr. Emily Cimino provides our services.

Dr. Cimino social skills groups offers a unique type of therapy where special needs children learn skills to improve their interactions with peers, adults and family members. The children learn to think before acting, use problem-solving strategies and make better choices. These skills are learned through a hands-on, interactive method including games and a positive reinforcement system. Through weekly updates and individual sessions, parents learn how to enhance the newly-learned social skills at home. Individual sessions are also available for children who would benefit from a one-on-one approach.

In addition to social skills groups, Dr. Cimino provides evaluative services including intelligence testing, achievement testing and process testing. Through these evaluations, they can diagnose giftedness, learning disabilities and attention deficit disorders.
