Pediatric Occupational Therapy may look like play but it is much more than that!

 
 

Play Therapy

The DIR/Floortime® Model addresses the social-emotional capacities of children

Meeting the child at their developmental level, considering the individual differences, the use of affect to engage, and focusing on relationships are components of the framework that make the DIR model so effective.

 
 
 
 

Pediatric Speech Therapy

Our experienced Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) support children with a wide range of speech and language challenges—such as childhood apraxia of speech, receptive and expressive language delays, and articulation disorders—using a compassionate, developmental approach. Speech Therapy Services are offered at our centers in Camp Hill and Mechanicsburg!

Our Approach: Foundations for Communication

We utilize the DIR/Floortime® model, emphasizing five foundational steps for expressive language:

  1. Engagement – Building attentive connection

  2. Intentionality – Supporting purposeful communication

  3. Shared Meaning – Developing mutual understanding

  4. Comprehension – Ensuring solid receptive language skills

  5. Production – Guiding expressive speech development

We embrace all forms of communication—gestures, signs, picture boards, or words—acknowledging that each child’s pathway to language is unique. Sign learning, for example, empowers children without inhibiting speech and can help reduce frustration while relationships flourish

The Benefits for Your Child

Pediatric speech therapy offers far-reaching advantages:

  • Stronger social skills and peer connections

  • Boosted academic performance and literacy foundations

  • Increased confidence and self-esteem

  • Clearer, more functional communication

  • Higher overall quality of life

Sensory Integration Therapy

Every child takes in information from the world through their senses—sight, sound, touch, taste, smell, movement, and body awareness. For most children, the brain organizes this information automatically, helping them respond appropriately to everyday situations.

For some children, however, sensory input can feel overwhelming, confusing, or underwhelming. This is called a sensory processing difficulty. A child may:

  • Cover their ears at normal sounds

  • Avoid certain textures in clothing or food

  • Seek extra movement, crashing, or spinning

  • Have trouble focusing in busy environments

  • Struggle with transitions or emotional regulation

When sensory processing challenges interfere with daily activities, sensory integration therapy can help.

Sensory Integration is a therapy approach aimed at helping children overcome sensory challenges. Difficulties in sensory processing can impair a child’s ability to connect socially, complete motor tasks, and learn in a classroom.
