Services Offered at Our Scripps Ranch Location
Speech and Language Therapy
For children who struggle with communication, speech and language, therapy helps them become clear, confident communicators. It can support your child in overcoming challenges that may affect their learning, behavior, or social development.
Occupational Therapy
For children who need help developing everyday skills, occupational therapy helps them learn to dress, feed themselves, write, and play with friends. Our therapists support children in building the skills they need to succeed in daily life.
Feeding Therapy
For children who have difficulty eating or drinking due to medical, sensory, motor, or behavioral challenges, feeding therapy helps them gain the skills they need to eat safely and happily.
Social Skills Groups
Our group sessions create a safe space for kids to practice the many skills developed through therapy. Social skills groups can benefit children who need extra support navigating friendships, communication, and social expectations.
