Speech therapy is a form of therapy that focuses on improving communication skills and language development in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). At LoveXpress, our speech therapists conduct a comprehensive assessment of each child’s communication skills, including pronunciation, language comprehension and expression, speech fluency, voice quality, and social cognition. Based on the assessment, our therapists develop an individualised treatment plan that targets each child’s specific communication needs.

Our therapy sessions may include exercises that aims to improve:

• Pronunciation
• Language comprehension and expression: vocabulary and grammar
• Speech fluency: speed and smoothness
• Voice quality: vocal cord condition and voice function
• Social cognition: emotional control, communication skills, organisation, and executive function
• Game-playing skills

Occupational therapy is a form of therapy that focuses on helping children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to develop their ability to perform daily activities, improve their motor coordination, and enhance their overall quality of life. At LoveXpress, our occupational therapists conduct a comprehensive assessment of each child’s sensory processing and regulation, proprioception and vestibular function, gross motor skills, fine motor skills, visual perception, and self-care abilities. Based on the assessment, our therapists develop an individualised treatment plan that targets each child’s specific needs and goals.

Our therapy sessions may include exercises that aim to improve:

• Sensory processing and regulation: visual, auditory, and tactile sensitivities;
• Proprioception and vestibular function: muscle and joint perception, spatial awareness;

Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) is a form of therapy that focuses on improving behaviours in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). At LoveXpress, our ABA therapists use evidence-based strategies to teach children new skills and reduce problem behaviours. Our therapists conduct a comprehensive assessment of each child’s behaviour and communication skills to develop an individualised treatment plan. ABA therapy is based on the principles of learning theory and involves breaking down complex skills into smaller, manageable steps, and using positive reinforcement to reward progress and encourage positive behaviors.

Our therapy sessions may include exercises that aim to:

• Enhance language and communication skills;
• Improve attention, concentration, social skills, memory, and academic performance;
• Reduce problem behaviours;
• Teach useful skills for daily living.

Various dyslexia training activities and Chinese character recognition techniques are employed to help children master the methods of reading Chinese characters and develop their language knowledge and abilities. We use a combination of “listening”, “speaking”, “reading”, and “writing” to improve recognition and writing abilities, and incorporate different strategies such as character decomposition, radicals, components, phonetic components, strokes, character structure, and parts of speech to enhance the learning experience. We create opportunity for children in our group setting to practice these skills with their peers, learn from each other, and develop their social ties.
