THERAPY SERVICES
Do you feel stressed, like you’re failing as a parent and letting your child down?
It can be hard when your child seems out of sync with everyone else. You can see they are behind, but you’re not sure whether you’re doing something wrong, if they need help or if you just need to sit back and give them more time to grow.
Many children don’t fit a mold or prescribed timeline, and some will just naturally take a little longer than others to develop, but others will also need a little bit of extra support to help them thrive and that’s where we come in.
FEEDING THERAPY
For picky eaters and problem feeders
Does the thought of mealtime strike terror in your heart? Have you become a short order cook? We can help by expanding your child’s “menu”. We teach you how to set up mealtimes for success and decrease the stress surrounding mealtime.
ARTICULATION THERAPY
Helping your child be understood
Can you not understand your own child or are you the only one who does understand them? In articulation therapy we assess what sounds your child says incorrectly. We then show them how to make the sounds so that your child can be understood more easily.
ORAL PLACEMENT THERAPY
Helping your child use their oral structures appropriately
In oral placement therapy, we explore how your child uses the parts of their mouth to make specific sounds. We then give you tools to help make those parts stronger and/or more coordinated to help your child use their mouth more effectively and efficiently.
AUDITORY PROCESSING THERAPY
Teaching your child to attend to and process auditory information
Is your child constantly saying, “Huh?” or “What?” Do they often mishear information or are unable to follow a story unless pictures are present? Auditory processing therapy improves children’s ability to make sense of information that they hear.
SOCIAL SKILLS THERAPY
Teaching your child how to interact with others appropriately in all settings
Does your child have a hard time making friends? Is your child inflexible, only seeing things in black and white? Social skills therapy targets how to interact with those around us as well as increase perspective taking skills among many other social skills.
EXECUTIVE FUNCTION THERAPY
Helping your child learn to execute tasks and become more independent in life skills
Is your child disorganized? Can they not do daily life tasks such as getting ready for school/sports or completing their homework without you walking them through every step of the way? We can change all that. We teach the child how to task analyze and become more independent in their everyday life, so you no longer have to be their executive functioning brain.
TESTIMONIALS
Parent of a middle schooler with language issues
Genna has been working with our daughter for three years having a significant impact on her academic success. Genna is a warm and caring therapist who always makes therapy fun. It is never a chore for our daughter to have her session. She loves going because she loves Genna but also because she feels that time with Genna is a safe place for her to express her feelings and frustrations. During COVID remote learning Genna helped on many levels- academically, socially and emotionally. Genna has helped her approach her work with tools and strategies that has helped to make learning easier. Our daughter is thriving academically and emotionally in school and we attribute much of this success to Genna.
