Common signs include difficulty with sensory sensitivities (sounds, textures, movement), challenges with fine motor tasks like writing or cutting, trouble with daily routines like dressing, difficulties with attention and focus, or social and emotional struggles. If you're noticing any of these, a free discovery call is a great starting point — no commitment required.
We work with children from toddlerhood through early adolescence. Our primary focus is on the early childhood and elementary years, though we evaluate each family's needs individually. The earlier a child receives support, the more impact therapy tends to have — but it's never too late to seek help.
Sessions are play-based and follow your child's lead. Using the DIR/Floortime framework, we enter your child's world — joining their play, building on their interests, and gently challenging them to grow. Sessions typically last 45–60 minutes and include time for parent check-ins so you stay informed and equipped to support growth at home.
We are currently private pay and do not bill insurance directly. However, we can provide a superbill that you may submit to your insurance company for potential out-of-network reimbursement. We encourage families to check with their insurer about their OON benefits. Please contact us to discuss fees and payment options.
DIR/Floortime is a relationship-based, developmental model. Rather than focusing on teaching specific behaviors or skills in isolation, it targets the foundational emotional and developmental capacities that support all learning — connection, communication, and curiosity. Sessions look like play because play is how children grow. It differs from more behavior-focused approaches by centering the child's emotional world and following their lead rather than directing the activity.
Very involved — and that's intentional. In the DIR/Floortime model, caregivers are essential partners in a child's development. We provide regular parent coaching, share strategies for home, and welcome your observations and questions. You know your child best, and we want to learn from you as much as you learn from us.
Every child's timeline is different. Some children show significant progress within a few months; others benefit from longer-term support. We re-evaluate goals regularly and discuss progress openly with families. Our aim is never to keep children in therapy longer than they need — we want to build capacity and help your family feel confident and equipped.
