Comprehensive therapies for pediatric patients

Our Pediatric Therapy Program brings together experts from various disciplines to focus on optimizing your child's development. We consider all aspects — physical, emotional and social — when creating your child's personalized therapy program.

Our program offers a wide range of comprehensive pediatric therapies to help your child heal and grow. Parental support, home programs and community-based consultations are essential components of our therapy interventions, as is collaboration with medical providers, early intervention programs and schools, orthotists, nutritionists and other providers involved in the child’s care team.

We recognize the importance of keeping your child’s care close to home, to help you manage all of your family’s needs. Our Pediatric Therapy Program addresses a range of diagnoses, disabilities and developmental delays, including but not limited to:

  • Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
  • Anxiety and self-regulation Issues

As part of our continuum of personalized care, we educate the entire family and arrange consultations for community-based rehabilitation. If your child needs adaptive equipment or assistive technology, we help you identify it and train you to use it.

Additionally, we coordinate treatment with your child’s pediatrician to ensure continuity of care and communication. When appropriate, we may refer you to other specialists, such as ear, nose and throat (ENT) doctors, eye doctors, audiologists, neuropsychologists and educators.

Multi-disciplinary approach to care

Our pediatric therapy services include a multi-disciplinary approach with experienced physical, occupational and speech therapists that provides for a range of treatment techniques/approaches such as:

  • Sensory integration therapy: Targeted treatment for sensory integration disorders such as sensitivity to clothing, textures, or sound, motor coordination issues, difficulties tolerating busy environments and body in-space awareness.
  • Warm water aquatic therapy: Addresses dressing, grooming and motor skills in a motivating environment and promotes participation in community programs and leisure skills
  • PROMPT: A multidimensional approach that integrates the physical-sensory aspects of motor production with the cognitive-linguistic and social-emotional aspects of language to develop motor skills within meaningful language interactions.
  • Social thinking: Treatment frameworks and strategies for developing competency in social cognitive thinking and social skills to respond appropriately to social information and participate in situational expectations.
  • Sequential oral sensory (S.O.S) approach: This is a program for assessing and treating children with feeding difficulties and weight/growth programs from birth to 19 years old. SOS integrates posture, sensory, motor behavioral/learning, medical and nutritional factors to evaluate and manage children with feeding/growth problems comprehensively.
  • Instruction in self-regulation: Treatment utilizing zones of regulation and Michelle Garcia Winner’s Social Detective Program.
  • Supporting oral feeding in fragile infants (SOFFI): An integrated approach to supporting oral feeding in preterm babies and infants with complex medical issues in the NICU and after discharge.
