Home Therapy Solutions is a professional therapy practice as opposed to a therapy placement agency. We have a variety of intervention support services for your child's needs. Your child may receive one or multiple therapies at a time. A referral or a change to another discipline is not considered a set back, but is often part of the continuum of intervention, or as a step down approach in order to hone in on a specific skill area that your child has been prepped and is ready for. Each of our professional disciplines have some inherent overlap with one another in practice. Any professionals working with your child, work as a team. Your child's needs and progress are discussed, and strategies are shared with each other. Below is a brief description of each of our disciplines in support of our mission and philosophy.
