Pediatric Occupational and Speech Therapy Service Provider
Our passion is to provide the best, quality therapeutic care for all children & youth with special needs through the use of empathy and best-practice treatment strategies.
Our Mission
We accomplish our mission through:
A Client Centered Approach:
We do our best to understand the perspective, background, and perceptions of every client, their family, & fellow therapists with altruistic intentions. We care for the “whole” child as we seek to provide support to the client’s mind, body, and spirit. We view our team of therapists like, "family," and treat each other as such. We engage with each other and our clients with love, compassion, respect, and dignity.
We foster an environment of learning and growth among our therapists. Examples of this include: our Mentorship Program, opportunities for Therapist Huddles, and CEU Opportunities.​
Collaboration & Learning:
What We Believe
Parental / Caregiver Partnership
We believe that parents play a critical role in a child's overall success. Partnership between a child’s family and therapist is key to achieving therapy goals and promoting that child’s growth and development. In the context of therapy, a healthy partnership is achieved through:
-
Parents / Caregivers sharing their goals for their child to live their best lives.
-
Continual collaboration and conversations between the family & therapist.
"Every child is unique,
not only capable of learning,
but also capable of succeeding."
Robert John Meehan
We believe that every child, regardless of symptom or illness, is first a child. Each child is capable of doing, being, and achieving.
​
"We change lives, not people. We celebrate and nurture people's differences and identities and listen to neurodivergent voices. We highlight strengths, promote self-advocacy, and approach our work with a trauma-informed lens.
Benefits of OT in a Child's Natural Environment
Research supports the benefits of providing occupational and speech therapy within the context of a child's natural home environment. Services in the home help the therapist to better understand the family's values, routine, and relationships; consequently, the therapist can suggest therapeutic activities that easily fit into the family's daily routine.
We are proud to say we are a "Neurodiversity Affirming" team! Neurodiversity-affirming care is an approach that validates and celebrates neurological differences, viewing them as variations of human experience rather than deficits to be corrected, and focuses on supporting individuals to thrive authentically.
-
​Respect and Acceptance: Neurodiversity-affirming care recognizes that neurological differences are normal and valuable variations.
-
Strength-Based Approach: It focuses on identifying and building upon the strengths and talents of neurodivergent individuals, rather than solely focusing on deficits.
-
Individualized Support: Interventions and supports are tailored to meet the unique needs and preferences of each person, acknowledging that there is no "one-size-fits-all" approach.
-
Empowerment and Autonomy: The goal is to empower neurodivergent individuals to recognize and leverage their strengths, navigate their challenges, and make adjustments tailored to their personal requirements.
-
Inclusivity: It promotes an inclusive environment where neurodivergent individuals feel supported, accepted, and valued for who they are.
