Intensive Therapy Programs


Helping Hands

(offered in summer, fall, and winter months)

At our Helping Hands programs we have had children with hemiplegia come from around the world. We run the program in a group, as a camp, so it can actually be a FUN experience. Helping Hands uses carefully designed activities to drive therapeutic gains. For parents who choose to combine disciplines, activities specifically designed to integrate 1, 2 or 3 therapy services will be built into the camp day.

Tailored for: Children with Hemiplegia


Individual Intensity Program

The Individual Intensity Program is a 4-week, intensive occupational therapy program providing constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) and bimanual training for children with hemiplegia. One child works with one occupational therapist for up to 6 hours per day.

Tailored for: Children with Hemiplegia


Leaps & Bounds

(offered in summer months)

Leaps & Bounds is a speech and occupational therapy program for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and/or sensory-motor issues who exhibit limitations in play, school, socialization, and activities of daily living. Leaps & Bounds uses carefully designed activities to drive therapeutic gains. The exciting part of this unique integration of OT and speech goals within a single activity allows a child a full-body, “real world” experience.
