Occupational therapy (OT) is a specialized treatment that helps children develop the skills they need to perform everyday activities, also known as "occupations." These activities can include playing, learning, self-care tasks, and social interactions. OT addresses a range of developmental and physical challenges, such as fine motor skills (e.g., writing, using utensils), sensory processing (e.g., reacting to light, sound, touch), coordination, and self-regulation. Our occupational therapy services are tailored to your child’s specific needs, with the goal of improving independence, confidence, and participation in daily activities. Whether it's mastering the skills needed for school or navigating social settings, OT can support your child in reaching their full potential.
Occupational therapy helps children develop the skills they need for daily activities like dressing, playing, and learning. Whether your child struggles with motor skills, sensory processing, emotional regulation, or executive functioning, OT provides personalized strategies to support their growth. Through fun, play-based activities, we help your child improve coordination, manage sensory input, build coping strategies, and develop focus and problem-solving skills. Our goal is to help your child gain confidence, independence, and success in everyday life.
Speech therapy is a treatment that helps children improve their ability to communicate, understand language, and use speech effectively. It addresses a variety of communication challenges, including articulation (pronunciation), receptive and expressive language (understanding and using words), social communication skills, and oral motor skills (for eating, drinking, and swallowing). Our speech therapy services are personalized to meet your child’s unique needs, helping them improve clarity of speech, enhance language skills, and develop functional communication strategies to succeed in daily activities and social interactions.
Speech therapy can help your child improve their communication skills, which are essential for daily interactions, learning, and socializing. If your child struggles with speech clarity, understanding or using language, social interactions, or oral motor skills (such as eating or swallowing), speech therapy provides targeted support. Our speech therapists assess your child's individual needs and create a personalized therapy plan that may include improving articulation, building vocabulary, enhancing social communication, or addressing feeding challenges. By using fun, engaging techniques, we help your child strengthen these skills, increase confidence, and set them up for success in school, at home, and in social settings.

We do not accept insurance in order to provide the highest level of care without the constraints of insurance companies. This allows us to create a more personalized and flexible treatment plan tailored to your child’s unique needs, without delays or limitations often caused by insurance policies. By operating outside of insurance networks, we are able to prioritize your child’s progress and maintain a direct and transparent relationship with families. Each month, we provide families with a superbill for services rendered during the previous month. You can submit this document to your insurance company for reimbursement at out-of-network rates. Please note, we cannot guarantee reimbursement, nor do we engage with insurance companies on your behalf. We accept payments via check, credit card, or Health Savings Account (HSA). If you have any questions regarding reimbursement, feel free to reach out to us for further clarification
Parents do not need a referral to access our services. We believe in making it as easy as possible for families to get the help they need, when they need it. Whether you’re concerned about your child’s development or looking to start therapy, you can contact us directly to schedule an appointment and begin services right away. Our team is here to guide you through the process and provide support every step of the way.
To get started, please contact us to schedule an initial evaluation. During the evaluation, we will assess your child’s needs and create an individualized therapy plan. Once the evaluation is complete, we will schedule therapy sessions based on the recommendations discussed.
