OUR THERAPY SPACES
Our therapy is "hidden" in play! Our spaces feature developmentally-appropriate, thematic-play elements throughout. Indoor & outdoor, fine & gross motor, music, friends, toys, games... your child will love making their way around the bright, colorful, clean, KID-FRIENDLY therapy rooms.
the EARLY CHILDHOOD CENTER
ages 2-7
Our littler kiddos LOVE the bright, engaging dramatic-play kitchen. They have so much fun playing with their therapist that they don't even notice all of the social and developmental skills that their therapist is sneaking into the session during the tea party!
Children's brains don't work as well in bland, clinical, boring spaces. Our thematic, developmentally-appropriate rooms are all immersive, engaging and hand-curated for our clients.
Bold and strong colors... just like a Superhero!
Fan Fave: Calling all Super Heroes! Ready to play-act a socio-emotional scenario between the Hulk and SpiderMan?? Bring it on!
Kiddos, channel your inner rebel and come practice your ABA Therapy skills in our awesome Graffiti Room! Mohawks and leather vests are optional.
Mozart, who?? Music is important in so many ways for a child's developing brain! We will have your kiddos rockin' and groovin' to some tunes that only a Mother (and an ABA therapist) could love!
the INTERMEDIATE & adolescent CENTER
ages 8-22
(temporarily overtaken by a staff meeting, but hey, it's a comfy place to lounge!!)
Our older kids don't really care what kind of therapy they are doing, as long as they can do it in these awesome, colorful fidget-friendly chairs!
In our older kids' facility, we have an athletics room to practice coordination, building muscle tone, and lots of fun ways we can move our bodies for greater health!
colorful art decor for teen clients
Our Main St. facility has an extra sunny and bright room on the 2nd floor... perfect for looking out over the neighborhood, working on fine motor skills with a puzzle, and chatting about the day with your child's therapist!
Older kids will gain familiarity with common sports and developmentally-appropriate games that they are likely to encounter around town. Hanging out in our teen lounge and keeping score during a foosball tourney is like teen-heaven!
PARENT COACHING & PARTNERSHIP
Parent engagement with the care team and at-home reinforcement of concepts is critical to a child's success. Your child's care team will work with you to develop a custom curriculum plan. Weekly coaching is required for our parents to continue lessons at home to maximize intervention treatment. Full transparency and communication are an integral part of our partnership; therefore, parents have full access to all our data, and are communicated a daily basis through our encrypted texting system.
SHADOWING
Our Clinical Team work alongside your child in settings where extra support enables their success. School is a typical outlet for this partnership, but we are also available to serve your child at practice, lessons, and more.
SOCIAL SKILLS
We partner with families to encourage their child in reaching their full potential when engaging in social situations. Whether that involves talking through social scenarios with a therapist ("What could you say if...") to prepare them for life's curveballs, or actually engaging in social time at our center... your child's therapist will be by their side to help them interpret, engage, and ultimately to get more enjoyment from future social interactions.
COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS
Unique Pathways has created a free monthly ASD parenting workshop at the Grapevine Library to share what we know, even with non-clients. We also partner with organizations like the Police, Fire Department, Grapevine Rec, and others to familiarize our clients with interacting with these agencies, and to familiarize the agencies on unique needs that their future clients may have.
EXCEPTIONAL THERAPY ROOMS
Our developmentally-appropriate, sensory friendly therapy rooms will engage your child in a welcoming, cheerful environment. We believe that therapy is most effective when children are enjoying the space and are motivated to spend time interacting with their therapist. Our themed rooms each offer unique decor, games, themes, and learning opportunities.
