Pure joy, wagging tails, and big smiles 🐾

Our Happiness Dogs sessions are filled with fun, laughter, and meaningful moments of connection. Through playful and guided interactions with therapy dogs, children naturally develop emotional regulation, empathy, communication skills, and confidence. What begins as a joyful experience becomes a powerful opportunity for social and emotional growth in a calm, supportive environment.

At TDCC, we honour the idea that when children feel happy and safe, development follows naturally.

Every child deserves the right tools, and the right therapist, to unlock their confidence.

We’re grateful to witness such powerful transformations through the dedication of our Occupational Therapists like Bakti, helping children overcome writing challenges and rediscover joy in learning.

Here’s the full copy of Mr. Guido’s testimonial:

“Testimonial for Mrs. Bakti, Occupational Therapist at TDCC
Mrs. Bakti has been an absolutely essential partner in supporting my son's journey with dysgraphia. Her group sessions for children and teens are structured yet highly engaging.

I was especially impressed by her willingness to seamlessly integrate our son's actual schoolwork into the therapeutic exercises, making the practice immediately relevant and impactful. She maintains a very responsive communication with my wife and me, always answering questions and accommodating requests promptly and thoughtfully.

Crucially, Mrs. Bakti's expertise was instrumental in securing the necessary school provisions for our son, including the support of a scribe.

While commitment from both the student and parents is still required, her work has been very effective in reducing the fear and anxiety our son associated with writing, especially during exams. I wholeheartedly recommend Mrs. Bakti to any family seeking dedicated, knowledgeable, and caring support for dysgraphia.” ❤
