Therapeutic Education
Welcome to Footholds Therapeutic Education Program! Footholds Therapy was created to provide an education alternative for learners and their families. We offer small learning group sizes and low student to staff ratios. Our Education Program is for learners enrolled in distance education schools around the province, mainly SelfDesign Learning Community. Footholds can also be accessed as support for tutoring on a part time basis.
Groups are led by certified BC teachers and many groups are further supported with intervention team members. The Therapeutic Education program combines the knowledge and empowerment of education with an empathic and supportive environment that helps students be present and available for new learning.

Testimonials
“Our son came to Foothold in November of 2018, it has been just under a year and the strides he has taken and changes in him have been incredible. The entire team has been wonderful and helped our son beyond words. Recently a family member who hadn’t seen our son since last August was in town and couldn’t get over the progress he has made. He engaged with them, talking with them, answering questions and gave them the biggest hug and thank yous for a toy train they gave him. We as parents have learned so much too and learned so many skills to help us as parents, beyond just learning about autism and the ups and downs it brings, but learning to be better parents in coping with all the things just being a parent entails. I proudly tell everyone about foothold and the help and support they have give us and our son. Thanks for all the support you have give Cayden.”
“I am very happy and satisfied with the progress my 3 year old son has made at Footholds in such a short amount of time. Just after 8 months of speech therapy and behavioural intervention, he has met many of the goals that we set and I am impressed everyday with how much and how fast he is learning and improving. He enjoys coming to the centre so much and I have only had positive experiences with everyone who works here and I would highly recommend it to any parent considering this centre.”
“We r so happy with our sons progress being in the Footholds Educational program. We have seen him learn and grow in ways we didn’t know were possible. He has made tremendous progress and he wouldn’t be where he was without the center. We r so happy with our decision to enrol our son in Footholds and would recommend them to anyone!”
“Our son has been with Footholds since its inception in 2010, we are in awe of the passion and dedication this team puts into our child’s therapy. Thank you Footholds for always striving to ensure my son has the best therapy, for continuing to educate your staff in the latest therapies and apply new knowledge into therapy sessions. Thank you for the incredible care, love and commitment to our sons best interests.”
