C.H.E.F.S Group Therapy Program

This exciting new program is all about functional life skills, positive well-being, building independence and building social connections.

Our C.H.E.F.S acronym clearly describes the main clinical learning outcomes we aim to support your child to achieve within this program:

Community access - Effectively managing and handling small amounts of money, prioritising and organising ADL (activities of daily living) tasks through effective time management skills and navigating the community with use of appropriate personal and road safety rules.

Home-related activities of daily living independence and increased self-efficacy in ADL tasks.

Executive functioning e.g. sequencing, planning and executing ADL tasks.

Fine motor skills - Building hand skills such as bilateral coordination, in-hand manipulation, grasp patterns, fine motor control and coordination, when preparing and cooking a range of simple, yet functional recipes.

Social Interactions - Developing social interaction and communication skills to work together in planning, sequencing and executing tasks involved in home-related ADL’s such as shopping, cooking and cleaning.
