Since young children learn through play and interaction with others Developmental therapists typically work with children from infancy-age 5. They assess how a child is developing during the most critical period of development. Developmental therapists recognize the importance of everyday experiences and relationships and work to design, implement, and modify therapeutic interventions for children that make sense within their daily routines. Developmental therapists look at children’s global development (cognitive skills, language & communication, play, problem solving skills, gross & fine motor skills, social-emotional skills, and self-help skills). Developmental therapist will assess a child’s global development and identify specific areas of need and areas of strength. They will then develop age-appropriate, play activities to help a child overcome their challenges, improve interactions with others, and help them gain confidence in their ability to learn and acquire typical skills.
Common Reasons for Developmental therapy may include:
Sessions are typically an hour in length and are considered private pay billed at $65/per hour session.

A developmental screening (birth-5 years of age) can address any concerns a parent or caregiver may have regarding what a child should be doing at their age.
Screenings provide parents information and guidance regarding referrals for supplemental services and or therapies. Appointments typically last 15-30 minutes and involve questions for parents and a brief observation of a child. Please call to set up an appointment.
Referrals for community programs, other professionals, information focusing on typical child development, speech resources, and Child Life referrals/information can be provided.
