services in New Jersey for your child, the easier way.

SOUNDS FAMILIAR?
My son is all over the place. He’s disorganized and clumsy. He falls apart quickly in frustration, resists change, and can’t manage in noisy or crowded places.
My child lags behind and lacks stamina. Sweet and complacent, he struggles to put on his coat, avoids joining sports activities, and complains of hand pain when writing.
My daughter is having a hard time socially. Her teacher reports that she frequently fights on the playground. At home she’s rigid and needs help sorting out difficulties.
I want her to learn to make friends and get along with others →
“Is this normal?”
You want answers to your questions.

PINPOINT
Our therapists conduct thorough evaluations to accurately identify the root of the problem, so that therapy focuses on the exact skills needed for improvement.

New skills are well-practiced in therapy, and at home with easy exercises for parents to continue. This way, we see changes faster and the new abilities become deeply acquired.
PROGRESS
We set realistic, measurable goals within a motivating environment, using games, prizes and positive encouragement to boost your child’s confidence and accelerate progress.

We don’t promise you miracles, but we promise you this
With lots of hard work and endless belief in the ability of each child, we have seen the impossible become reality. Our mission is to dig beneath the surface, care beyond the ordinary, and succeed above the expected.
Therapy is effective and easily accessible,
but is it necessary?
Hear what this Mother has to say:
“My younger daughter started with therapy in first grade but my older daughter wasn’t as lucky. After graduating high school she continues struggling with the lasting impact of daily letdowns, social isolation, and lack of academic advancement. I shout out to all young parents, “Do not miss the opportunity that occupational and speech therapy can offer your child”. While I don’t blame myself, I try to save others the devastation of living with under-maximized potential.”
You won’t have another chance to bring about change today.
