Your child’s growth and well-being are the priority
The intake process is designed to help families feel confident, informed, and supported right from the beginning. Finding the right support should feel clear and comfortable, with each step offering space to ensure the fit feels just right. Every child and every family deserves to feel seen, heard, and understood from the start.
A brief no-pressure conversation to listen to your hopes, concerns and desired outcomes. We’ll answer any questions and discuss whether SHINE’s approach aligns with your needs.
Step 2: Meet & Greet (30–45 minutes, In-Person)
Before you invest your time, energy, or trust, it’s important to feel confident in who you’re working with. This free, no-obligation in-person introduction is all about connection. We’ll spend time getting to know your child through casual, game-based activities and informal playful assessments designed to help us explore strengths, and needs in a relaxed and playful way. If it feels like the right match for everyone, we’ll begin planning the first few sessions together.
