Health & Wellness

CIP students create a personal fitness plan that can provide balance through proper nutrition, exercise, stress-reduction practices, sensory diet and sleep regimens. This plan is augmented by yoga, group workouts, walking clubs and other techniques. Students meet weekly with wellness coordinators in groups and many also have additional individual wellness sessions in order to meet their goals.

Individual Therapy

Individual therapy sessions help shape and manage one’s life while improving the quality of interpersonal relationships. Students also receive guidance and validation to help deal with day-to-day challenges, frustrations, stress and anxiety. Emphasis is placed on acceptance of self and others while establishing a solid foundation for a fulfilling, productive life.

Sensory Integration

CIP offers a Sensory Integration class, helping students understand their sensory needs and the importance this plays in daily life. By assessing and studying each of the individual senses and completing sensory activities, the awareness of sensory issues can assist students and staff in developing coping strategies to be used in the different areas of an individual’s life.
