Program Features:

 Assessment

A complimentary screening is done to determine if the client has the "gift" portion of dyslexia.  An interview is conducted with the Davis® Facilitator to design a program specific to the client's individual needs and to set goals for that individual's prospective program.  This takes approximately one and a half hours and is addressed individually during our monthly presentations.  Please call for times, dates, and registrations.

A positive result enables us to guarantee our program for that individual.

Davis Orientation Counselling®

The client develops the ability to detect and correct disorientation (or inaccurate perceptions) at will.

Davis Symbol Mastery®

A dyslexic masters concepts which may be causing confusion and triggering disorientations by mastering those concepts in clay.  The client will create the alphabet in upper and lower case, punctuation, and words for which there are no mental pictures.  In a math program, we address numerals and other math symbols.  Other concepts such as order vs. disorder, consequence, time, sequence, etc. may be addressed as would best benefit the client and his or her needs.

Sight Training

A process is given to train the client's eyes to move smoothly from left to right and to comprehend (using mental imagery) what is being read.

Kinesthetic Development

Kinesthetic and balancing exercises resolve many coordination issues arising from disorientation and strengthen the neural networks for accurate perception.  

Follow Up

Home Study Program:

A client takes responsibility for setting learning goals and designing a schedule to practice the new skills at home.  This can take up to two years, but is generally accomplished in less than one year.

Support Training:

A committed family member or tutor will be taught the basic symbol mastery methods and shown how to coach the client during home study.  The "support person"  will be needed during the client's entire follow up program.

Review and Consultation:

We provide unlimited phone support and are glad to answer any questions which may arise after the program.  If needed, the client may return for up to three review sessions (of two hours each) at no additional charge.
