Pegasus Therapy is pleased to announce our fifth year of Summer Therapeutic Group! This year we are so excited to welcome Ms. Emily Sorbi, school counselor, back as camp co-director. Ms. Amy Seymore, occupational therapist, will be back as co-director of camp with special guest Ms. Ann-Bailey Lipsett, Masters in Special Education & advanced DIR/Floortime Certification, the week of August 1-5.

Location: 3500 Franconia Road Alexandria, VA 22310

We are running two separate camps this summer, The Great Escape, where students will participate in an escape room for the first part of the day, then work together to create their own escape room that will run on Friday for parents/ siblings to try out. Families receive a report at the end of camp reviewing strengths and weaknesses and suggestions to build skill over the rest of summer. This camp is best suited for rising 6th through 8th graders who could benefit from building executive functioning, teamwork and communication skills.

We will follow covid recommendations carefully to decide if the final escape room will be done virtually or in person. Parents/ siblings will log into a google meetup and a student will act as their proxy and walk the camera around the room according to directions of the participants or we will invite them to participate live.

Max enrollment 8, minimum enrollment 6.

Schedule:
8:30 - 8:45-- Welcome, intro to that day's escape room
8:45-10:00-- Escape Room, 15 min debrief and analysis afterwards
10:00- 11:00-- Brainstorming and planning with adult support

FAQ:
How do I register?
   
  Please email msotamy@gmail.com with your camper application form.

Who is on the staff?
     All participants will interact with Amy, a registered and licensed occupational therapist, and Emily, a licensed school counselor. Exceptional college interns interested in attending occupational therapy school may be accepted to assist staff. 

Is this therapy?
      Participants are in a therapeutic environment, with careful scaffolding to build independence but the ratio will not be 1:1 and this is not intended as a replacement for ongoing occupational therapy or counseling. At the end of your child's time at group our occupational therapist and counselor can help guide you to decide if further individualized intervention is necessary.

What if my child is outside the age range listed?
      Please email Amy to discuss if your child is developmentally appropriate for this group. If there is strong interest for ages outside the range listed we will make every effort to get staff to support their participation.
