Consultations

We offer free consultations to ensure we're the right fit for the families we work with. First, we'll all tour the clinic together to get comfortable before your child plays with a therapist to assess their balance, coordination, fine motor skills, executive functioning, and more. While they play, you'll discuss your child's strengths, their challenges, and your concerns. Learn more on our blog post.

Pediatric Occupational Therapy - Individual

In occupational therapy sessions, we address families’ goals, areas of weakness, and foundational skills development all while having FUN! After your consultation, we'll develop your child's unique OT plan based on the goals we decide together. The child is the center of attention, and they are able to guide therapy in a way that meets their sensory and developmental needs.

Pediatric Occupational Therapy - Small Group Sessions

Small Group OT sessions are about working on social skill development while addressing sensory and developmental needs. Children are screened for appropriate matches, and therapy is collaborative with the group members.  Please email us to ask about our current group options; you may be just who we are waiting for to start our next group!

Integrated Speech & Occupational Therapy

This unique therapy offers integrated goals to maximize your child’s therapy time with co-treatment. Our staff collaborates to plan fully customized therapy sessions to provide the just-right challenge. During co-treatment, the Speech Therapist and Occupational Therapist problem-solve together in real-time with the child, which allows for rapid growth & progress. This is offered as a single consultative or ongoing therapy according to the child’s needs.

Speech Therapy

Speech Therapy is offered through SPEAK with Ana Curtin at our clinic, both as a stand-alone service and integrated with Occupational Therapy. SPEAK specializes in motor speech disorders and oral muscular dysfunction, to assist children with more complex challenges.

School On-site Visit & Evaluation

On-site School visits allow us to observe the child & create an individualized plan to support them toward educational success. During the classroom visit, we gather pertinent information through observation & connect with their teaching team. Afterward, we provide formal recommendations for both the teacher(s) and parents, ranging from small supports, such as slant boards and classroom seating, to more significant supports, such as schedule changes, tutoring & vision therapy.

Educational Consultation

Educational Consultants are Board Certified Special Education Advocates who work with parents, schools, and students to create long-term plans that empower students to reach their potential. Consultation and advocacy services can include facilitating collaboration between providers, analyzing a student's records to create or revise an IEP or 504 Plan, and supporting parents in becoming informed and empowered advocates. Contact us today to schedule your free initial inquiry call to see if we're a good fit for your family.  

Independent Educational Evaluation

We offer occupational therapy Independent Educational Evaluations (IEE) which are funded through the public school IEP system.  Our IEE process typically involves a school observation and standardized individual evaluation.  We provide parents and the school with a thorough report highlighting your child's strengths and weaknesses.  It includes actionable school-based recommendations. Independent evaluations can be helpful in creating a balanced conversation in IEP meetings.  We have experience in both Anne Arundel and Prince George's County schools.

Parent Workshops 

Supporting our families and building community is an important part of our mission to help kids become the best version of themselves.  Check out our blog for more information on workshops, events, and educational sessions being offered currently.
