Evaluations

Evaluations

Evaluations include a comprehensive intake of history and reported concerns.

Depending upon the child's age, assessment may include standardized assessment, informal assessment, and play-based interactions.

Upon completion of the evaluation a verbal report will be provided with results and recommendations, followed by a written report.
Treatment

Treatment

Treatment is based upon a plan of care established by the treating therapist.

Therapy may involve structured tasks and play-based activities depending upon the targeted goal.
