Adaptive skills training for teens and young adults
Adaptive skills training led by an occupational therapist, designed for teens and young adults with autism and other developmental disabilities. The approach is sensory-informed, strengths-based and neurodiversity-affirming. Clients work toward their own goals in self-care, time management, safety awareness, basic household tasks and other practical daily skills. Executive functioning is a focus, including planning, organization, attention, flexible thinking, emotional regulation, task initiation and self-monitoring. Social skill development covers communication, reading social cues and building relationships through structured guidance and real-life scenarios. The founder, Monica Caris, OTD, OTR/L, holds the USC Chan Sensory Integration certificate. The provider is vendored with Harbor Regional Center, so services can be funded through the regional center.
