Mind Shift is a small-group program designed to support children who experience challenges with executive functioning skills such as flexible thinking, emotional regulation, organization, and planning. Through engaging activities, discussion, and guided practice, children learn practical strategies to help them adapt to changes, manage frustration, follow through with tasks, and approach challenges with effective problem-solving skills.
This group is based on the evidence-informed Unstuck and On Target! curriculum, which focuses on helping children develop flexible thinking strategies and self-regulation skills that can be applied across a variety of settings.
Caregivers receive weekly updates on their child’s progress in the group, including information about the strategies and concepts being practiced. These updates also include suggestions for how the skills can be reinforced and applied in everyday situations at home, school, and in the community to support generalization and continued skill development.
