• Progressive Goal Attainment Program (PGAP™) – The PGAP™ is an evidence-based treatment program targeting psychosocial barriers to recovery and rehabilitation for clients suffering from debilitating health or mental health conditions. It contributes to a successful return to work for individuals with back pain, whiplash, fibromyalgia, cancer, depression, and PTSD.
• Accommodating Employees with Early Onset Dementia 
  Dementia can impair employees in their prime working years.  Employers may notice changes in an employee’s performance such as frequent absences or signs such as repetitive conversation or struggling to find the correct words, missing deadlines, and meetings or losing items.  Employees may have noticed these signs impacting their ability to focus and complete their work tasks and keep motivated at work. We provide specific accommodation strategies to assist both the employer as well as employee facing this situation.
