Mosaic Minds

“Helping every child grow through play, connection and care”

Mosaic Minds provides integrative, therapeutic services for neurodiverse children and youth with a focus on supporting sensory, emotional, social and developmental growth.

Therapy offers a supportive environment where a child experiencing challenges with sensory processing, social communication, emotional regulation or developmental transitions can grow and thrive.

Program staff are certified AutPlay Practitioners and certified Play Therapists.

Each child’s path begins with a Sensory Processing Assessment to identify individual sensory needs and areas of strength. Additional assessment builds a tailored therapy plan incorporating sensory integration techniques, emotional regulation strategies, AutPlay therapy and other developmentally appropriate modalities.

Our approach, grounded in current neurodevelopmental research, blends clinical expertise with child-centered care, creating a supportive and engaging therapeutic environment. We aim to improve functional skills, increase self regulation, foster connection and help every child succeed in their own unique way.
