This review is for OT. Would leave zero stars if I could. The billing has been a constant issue,…read moreeven when we cancel appointments, we still end up getting charged. The sessions are advertised as 30 minutes, but in reality they feel much shorter. The therapist usually spends the first 5-10 minutes letting our son play, then about 15 minutes on actual therapy, and the last 10 minutes cleaning up and wrapping up the session. When I called to ask about it, the person I spoke with said it's because insurance only allows them to bill for 15 minutes of therapy. It's frustrating to pay so much when only about 15 minutes of the appointment is actual therapy time. Overall, we were not impressed and ultimately decided to pull our son out.

We are beyond grateful for the OT our child receives by Yashi (she's the best) . From the moment…read morehe started, it was clear how special these sessions would become to him. He genuinely looks forward to every class, and seeing his excitement and joy walking in says more than words ever could. The impact on his development has been incredible. We've seen growth not only in his sensory regulation and skills, but also in his confidence, engagement, and overall happiness. Every session is thoughtfully guided with patience, care, and a true understanding of who he is as an individual. We appreciate her more than we can fully express. Anyone who brings this much happiness, comfort, and progress into our child's life will always have a place in our hearts. We feel incredibly lucky to have found someone who cares so deeply and makes such a meaningful difference in our child's journey.

We've had such a wonderful experience with Gina C. at Radiant Kids Therapy. Gina truly listens to…read moreparents' concerns and takes the time to set clear, realistic expectations, which immediately made us feel supported and confident in our son's care. What really sets Gina apart is her patient-led approach. She meets my son where he is and adjusts each session based on his needs in the moment. Gina is incredibly compassionate, sweet, and attentive to cues. When my son becomes overwhelmed and needs space--sometimes even needing to step into a quiet corner--Gina recognizes this right away and adapts without pressure. That flexibility and understanding helped her build real trust with him. Because Gina listens, observes, and adjusts so thoughtfully, our son feels safe and respected during sessions, and that has made a huge difference in his progress. She is a fantastic representative of Radiant Kids Therapy, and I highly recommend her to any family looking for a caring, patient, and child-centered speech therapist.

We have nothing but wonderful things to say about this group and about Mrs. Laureen Franklin! Mrs. Laureen is incredibly patient, positive, and helpful. She does an amazing job of interacting with my daughter, pushing her to try new things, and giving both my daughter and me the tools that we need to help her be successful. She has provided me with abundant resources to set us up for success at home, and has equipped me with a wealth of information as my husband and I learn how to navigate my daughter's needs. We would be so lost without Mrs. Laureen! Huge thanks to everyone at KIDS Therapy for all of the hard work and love that they pour into our kids.

My son has a rare medical condition and his therapists took the time to learn more about it and join groups that could support them in helping my child.

I recommend K.I.D.S Therapy to everyone who has a child that needs OT, PT, or Speech therapy.

We haven't gone to an IEP meeting yet so I will update once we do, but I do feel that he is an assesor with integrity which is important. Too many therapists have improper training by districts and deny children a proper assesment. Mr. Wilson's facility is very comprehensive, clean and orderly...he has a big train set in the entrance which instantly calmed my child who loves trains. His front desk staff is kind, respectful and attentive. So far I have a high opinion of this center and this assesor and will bring my other children who need OT services here. I should also add that I've been to many OT centers and some are run in a very "mill"/"factory" way where the kids are pushed through. I did not get that feel here.

Not knowing if it's going to be a good fit, or a parent feeling comfortable doing that. If grocery stores, restaurants and other businesses can have customers walking in and out, I don't see why it's an issue for a child's parent to sit in during a session. i'm sure exposure is already limited by not having normal amount of appointments. if i have to explain, plea or escalate my concerns to be allowed to stay with my child to ensure their safety, then it's probably not a good fit for us.

Would definitely recommend you reach out to them for your OT needs.

I came to OT Zone in a moment of desperation and panic. Through foster care, adoption and biology,…read moreI've been a parent to 31-children over the years. Many of my children have lived through horrific circumstances, circumstances that have absolutely altered their brain functioning. Things that love alone cannot overcome. My youngest child, "A" is a superstar in many ways, but her trauma was keeping her from meeting her potential in her extracurriculars and her preschool classroom. At 3-years old, we were facing expulsion from preschool because her trauma behaviors were so disruptive. Her teachers had tried everything, and though they love her very much, they couldn't sacrifice the wellbeing of the classroom much longer. When I spoke owner of OT Zone, I immediately broke down in tears. She gave me a flicker of hope when I was feeling defeated and unsure about my child's future. As somebody who has parented many children, I know what happens to children when early intervention doesn't happen - or, God forbid, when it's not enough. My child's intense and spirited personality were life saving for her in the start of her life, but just because she's now in a safe family where she is forever cherished doesn't mean those behaviors go away. Nicole understands this and conveyed to me that she sees my child's nuances as strengths just like her daddy and I do. Ms. Dani, A's regular therapist, has a gentle approach that is collaborative, which is perfect for a child who still lives part-time in fight or flight mode. She asks a lot of A but not in a way that makes A feel unsafe, for example she doesn't demand eye contact from A - something that traumatized children with histories of neglect can't give to those outside of their most intimate family circle, but she does patiently demand communication, which she elicits. A's sessions are structured but definitely child driven. One of my favorite parts is how cooperative sessions can be between the other clients and their therapists and A. At the end of sessions, Dani takes a few minutes to give me feedback on how to manage challenges we're having out in the wild - like in demanding environments where a lot of being asked of my child who is a part-time fight or flighter. We have had many wins, all baby steps but wins nonetheless, since starting at OT Zone. For example, A was not expelled from preschool and in fact saw enough behavioral gains that we were asked to put her in TK instead of another year of preschool. At gymnastics, she is now navigating the environment much more successfully. A has reclaimed some power and gained ways to communicate when she's too overwhelmed to use words. Even though I've parented a kabillion kids, and quite honestly know a good 50% of what Dani is doing with A, sometimes you need to pay somebody a couple hundo to work with your child and your family to make the things that you already know work for you. There's a lot that goes into healing a child with trauma, and I've learned that it's probably a life long process. Not one thing is enough, you've got to do all the things, and for my family OT Zone has become one of the most important things we've done to help A. A loves her days at OT Zone, she looks forward to her sessions with Joy. It's not easy, the family still needs to do the work, but the team you get at OT Zone is invested, they want your kid to have success and to be more than okay, they want your baby to be happy out in the world doing regular kid things. If my child, with everything she's been through before she became my forever child, can have some success then I bet you anything that your biological child with autism, or sensory issues, or CP, or learning disabilities or just sensitivities to life can have success too. Your child's happiness is everything and hope in your little one's future is a gift. This is for sure an investment while you wait for insurance reimbursement or regional center funding or shaking out the couch cushions but it's worth it and if you're reading this long a$$ review then you probably need this intervention pretty badly already so just do it. Okay?!

My son has ADHD and struggles significantly with handwriting and motor planning.

He started OT on the recommendation of his Kindergarten teacher. Danielle worked with him on fine motor skills, handwriting and sensory support integration. My son looked forward to his sessions, she has tons of cool stuff in her office- a ball pit, trapeze-type swinging contraptions, and more. Perhaps equally important, she has helped me as I have continued to advocate for my son, providing reports for evaluations, counseling me on strategies for school, listening when I needed support, and sharing her opinion when I needed a second set of eyes. We highly recommend Writesteps Pediatric Occupational Therapy. Danielle is passionate about helping children, and she brings such a beautiful combination of knowledge and love to her job.
