The Stowell Learning Center - Pasadena Difference

THE STOWELL DIFFERENCE

You will get the most comprehensive approach to treating learning disabilities that are research-based, and clinically-proven.


COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH


THE LEARNING SKILLS CONTINUUM

We are the only company to provide cognitive learning therapies across the entire Learning Skills Continuum.

This comprehensive approach was developed at Stowell Learning Centers by Jill Stowell. It ensures that we can identify and treat all of the underlying skills that are at the root of learning and attention challenges.

Instead of a piecemeal approach, we are able to deliver treatment all in-house. No more having to go to various specialists for different therapies.

Since we are able to oversee the entire process and monitor progress, there is less likelihood that a weak processing skill will fall through the cracks.


PRECISE IDENTIFICATION


COMPREHENSIVE FUNCTIONAL EVALUATION

Our 35+ years of clinical experience has helped us hone the ability to precisely identify all the weak underlying processes in our Functional Evaluation. The diagram demonstrates all the different skills we test.

Many students, after having been through multiple specialists and therapies, come to us with a misdiagnosis or missing diagnosis. A common example is that a new student will come in with a diagnosis of ADD. After a thorough Functional Evaluation, we find that the student also has dyslexia and an auditory processing disorder.

Symptoms of inattention can have many roots as is the case with all learning disabilities. In order to prevent what may look like a "relapse" which is actually an overlooked weak underlying process, we take great care in thorough and precise identification.


QUICK AND EFFECTIVE


UNIQUE TREATMENT PLAN

Our main expertise is knowing which therapies to introduce, when to introduce them, and in what order. Most importantly, we also know at what intensity the student is able to handle to prevent burnout and regression. This is a highly individualized treatment plan since no two brains are alike.

Once all of the weak underlying processes have been identified, then we can design a unique treatment plan that is the quickest, and most effective path to remediation.

A student's treatment plan will consist of a unique combination of therapies across the learning skills continuum as determined by the Functional Evaluation.

The goal is to treat the underlying skills that are causing the learning and attention challenges in order to permanently correct or eliminate the challenges associated with the learning disability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, we are an approved vendor for many of the Pasadena-area Regional Centers and provide services under "Executive Functioning and Adaptive Skills"

If you’re interested in understanding the non-verbal experience, we recommend watching The Reason I Jump. If you’re looking for a movie that can help your child understand their emotions, many neurodiverse families love Inside Out. Check out our autism-friendly movie guide here.

For both a scientific and personal look at autism, we recommend reading But You Don’t Look Autistic At All by Bianca Toeps. Check out our full book guide for more great reads.

Hero Elementary is great for the young ones. Songs for Littles is excellent for toddlers learning how to talk. And Ranking of Kings is a great option for anime and fantasy fans. See our full list of the best TV shows about autism and inclusion.

Music therapy can take place in a variety of settings including schools, hospitals, the child’s own home, rehabilitation centers, and clinics.


A therapy session will vary from child to child, depending on the child’s specific needs. Before your child starts music therapy, their music therapist will develop a personalized treatment plan for your child. Depending on your child’s goals their treatment may involve singing, dancing, listening to music, playing an instrument, or even composing music.

Once you find a music therapist, the therapist will perform an evaluation to determine if music therapy is a good fit for your child as well as determine possible goals. The evaluation will be comprehensive and look at your child’s response to a variety of musical stimuli, including giving your child an opportunity to play with instruments or listen to a variety of music types.


Evaluations will vary based on setting. For example, private practice has a number of evaluation tools while schools typically use an evaluation tool called the SEMTAP (special education music therapy assessment protocol) that focuses on looking at a student’s IEP goals and how or if the addition of music aligns with their IEP goals.

This happens. The results of the school’s evaluation may be different than your child’s medical diagnosis. It’s also important to remember that school is NOT the final say on your child’s potential. They may offer very little support to your child, underestimate their abilities, or disagree with you on what support your child needs. You will probably need to advocate for the services and support you believe your child needs.
