Occupational Therapy
Every child engages in occupations, routines and responsibilities. For children, occupations include participating in self care tasks, tolerating the fabric of clothing, sitting up in order to play, participating in a game with other children, tolerating the noise of a birthday party, holding a pencil, writing legibly, playing on the playground.
Speech Language Therapy
Some of the areas a speech language pathologist treats include articulation disorders, fluency disorders (such as stuttering), voice disorders, difficulty with pragmatics, and swallowing disorders.
Feeding Therapy
Pediatric feeding therapy is a specialty service to help children who have trouble eating, drinking, or swallowing. At the Center for Pediatric Therapy, we focus on helping your child overcome feeding challenges and create healthy eating habits
Torticollis Therapy
Torticollis is a condition where a baby may favor looking towards one side, have difficulty turning their head, or maintain a tilted head position. It’s caused by a tight sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM), which helps with head tilting and turning.
Physical Therapy
Physical therapists utilize their specific knowledge base of anatomy, neurology, and physiology to observe and assess how a child moves from one position to another as well as how strength, balance, and coordination affect movement patterns.

Evaluations
CPT’s initial evaluations take approximately one to one and a half hours to complete. During the evaluation, a combination of parent interview, clinical observations, and standardized assessments will be administered to determine your child’s current level of functioning.
