Telehealth
Services

Occupational
Therapy
A child’s day is made up of activities and routines, or “occupations.” These occupations may be playing with toys, coloring, eating with a spoon or putting on a T-shirt. Occupational therapy helps children develop these essential skills.
Speech
Therapy
Speech therapy assessments, consultations, and sessions include articulation, fluency, delayed language development, auditory and language processing disorders, and more.
Focused
ABA Therapy
Focused ABA services are for individuals who (a) need treatment only for a limited number of key functional skills, or (b) have such an acute problem behavior that its treatment needs to be prioritized.
Comprehensive
ABA Therapy
Our processes to improve cognition, adaptive, social, and emotional domains range from structured lessons to more naturalistic programming that can look like play, chore completion, or conversation.
