    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.
