Autism therapy in Nairobi designed around each child.
Heartstrings Autism Academy provides personalised autism therapy and developmental support for children who need help with communication, learning, behaviour, social interaction and everyday skills.
Personalised autism therapy focused on meaningful development
Autism therapy works best when support reflects the individual child. At Heartstrings Autism Academy, therapy is planned around the child's communication, learning, behaviour, development and daily needs.
Individual Therapy
Therapy activities are adapted to the child's current abilities, learning style, strengths and areas where additional support is needed.
Communication Support
Children can receive support with understanding language, expressing themselves, communicating needs and interacting with others.
Family Involvement
Parents and caregivers can be involved in the child's support so that useful skills can also be practised during everyday routines.
Support for communication, learning and everyday skills
Our therapy services are designed to support different areas of child development. The type and focus of support can vary according to each child's individual needs.

Support for children who need help with communication, language understanding, expression, speech and interaction.

Therapy that follows the needs of the child
We focus on practical progress that can support a child's participation at school, at home and in everyday activities.
Individual Goals
Therapy goals are based on the child's abilities, needs and areas of development.
Consistent Support
Children benefit from structured activities and consistent support across their learning and therapy sessions.
Practical Skills
Activities can focus on skills that are useful in everyday routines and learning environments.
Family Partnership
Parents can receive guidance on supporting useful skills outside therapy sessions.
Building skills that matter in everyday life
Autism therapy can support a range of developmental areas. The focus depends on the child's individual needs and goals.
Communication
Support for understanding, expressing needs, using language and finding effective ways to communicate.
Learning Skills
Structured activities can help children develop attention, participation, understanding and learning routines.
Daily Living Skills
Support can include practical skills used during personal routines, classroom activities and everyday tasks.
Parents are an important part of autism therapy
Children spend much of their time with family. Supporting parents and caregivers can therefore help reinforce useful skills beyond the therapy setting.
Working Together
We encourage communication between families and the professionals supporting the child. Parents can share observations, discuss progress and learn practical ways to support their child's goals.
