Welcome to North Star School!
Developmental Therapy (DT)
Developmental Therapy (DT)
North Star offers a complete array of services for children from ages 3 to 17, and their
families in North Idaho. Services include Intensive Behavioral Intervention Therapy,
Developmental Therapy, and Children's Service Coordination.
Our teams work closely with other providers in your child's life including their schools,
health care professionals, and other therapists. IBI therapists work with children to
develop positive behaviors and the skills they need to function in typical home and
community environments. IBI is a one-to-one service that is individualized for each
child.
How does DT make a difference?
DT programs focus on the child's individual strengths and needs within each area of
development. Developmental Therapy is designed to teach life skills to promote
independence. Therapy is tailored to the needs of the child and is provided in the most
effective setting for learning, including our child care center, in their homes and other
community locations!
Program Descriptions
Toddler Program: 12 to 24 months of age
Our Toddler program offers infant stimulation utilizing approaches drawn from the
fields of Applied Behavior Analysis and Child Development. This program is designed for
children who are “at risk” for developmental delays or an Autism Spectrum Disorder.
The first twenty-four months of life are a very critical time for fostering growth in a
child's development. Parent education and support is a central focus to ensure family
members can foster their child's development in areas of need.
Preschool, PreK, Kindergarten and 1st Grade Programs 3 to 8 years of age
These programs deliver intensive behavioral intervention programs to children who
show pervasive delays across several areas of development (i.e., communication /
language, social, play, self-help, adaptive behaviors, etc..). Intervention programs are
individualized and combine a range of ABA methodologies such as highly structured
teaching practices (i.e., discrete trial teaching) and more naturalistic play based
interventions (Pivotal Response and Incidental Teaching).
Community DT 3-17 years of age
This program is designed for children who display challenging behaviors and it
designed to teach life skills to promote independence. Therapy is tailored to the needs
of the child and is provided in the most effective setting for learning, including our child
care center, in their homes and other community locations!
