Pediatric Occupational Therapy

As part of the major focus of occupational therapy, your kid will receive assistance with day-to-day activities, routines, and "jobs" (occupations) in a range of contexts. This support will be provided in a variety of locations. We've got you covered in every environment, from the living room to the lecture hall and everything in between.

With the assistance of occupational therapy, patients are able to improve their level of physical function, as well as their motor and social skills, their ability to care for themselves, their capacity for cognitive planning, and their emotional well-being. In addition to this, patients are better able to effectively integrate the information they get from their senses.

Autism Therapists

Whether you are just hearing the words of your kid's diagnosis or you have been going on a trip with a child with special needs for several years, it is always great to know that there are people beside you. There will be footsteps left behind by those who have traveled the way before you, and there will be others who will follow your footprints as they navigate the unknown. There will also be footprints left behind by those who have walked the path after you.

Every single person who walks along this road, every single step that is taken, and every single footprint left behind is significant. Why? mainly because this route is neither direct nor simple. You will have doubts about yourself, as well as doubts about other people. It is going to be plain difficult, but it is going to be worthwhile.

Child Therapist

Has anyone ever loved your offspring as if they were their own? They adore them because of their kind eyes, warm expressions, silly laughter, focused intent, and the way they lower themselves to their level. They exude empathy, tolerance, and perseverance. The staff at Marshall Pediatric Therapy exudes precisely this kind of affection. Our love is deliberate, patient, and charitable. It is what binds us to each other and the families we serve as a family. Love is my favorite of our five fundamental values, the characteristics that distinguish our team.

Our employees strive for excellence and choose contentment. The kind of contentment that doesn't waiver in the midst of challenges. Our team also chooses courage by refusing to be inhibited by the fear of attempting new things or of what others may think. They encourage the children to be courageous while attempting to learn new things. Exemplifying these values on a daily basis contributes to the development of a culture of encouragement where individuals can feel inspired.

Pediatric Physical Therapy

The goal of physical therapy for children is to help them reach motor milestones, improve or regain function, and attain the highest level of functional independence possible across a variety of situations. This treatment is provided to children from birth through puberty. A child's physical therapist can assist them in building strength and increasing their range of motion, as well as helping them improve their balance and coordination, all with the end objective of enhancing the child's mobility and function.

It is not necessary for a child to have a medical diagnosis in order for them to benefit from physical therapy. Children who are behind in reaching a variety of developmental milestones, from rolling over and sitting to walking and playing, may experience setbacks in their overall growth progress, flexibility, and overall confidence when it comes to completing activities of daily living. As a consequence of this, the child might need to participate in physical therapy.

Mental Health Therapy

During sessions of mental health therapy, the primary focus is on offering encouragement and support in order to promote the construction of a family life that is more stable, caring, and effective in general. This is done in order to help the individual establish healthier relationships with their loved ones. This is done in order to assist the individual in reaching the therapeutic goals that have been set for them.

Counseling for mental health can be of assistance in the treatment of a wide range of mental diseases and emotional challenges. Through collaborative efforts with the affected child and the rest of his or her family in specific circumstances, it may even be possible to entirely eradicate these issues with the child's support.

Pediatric Speech Therapy

Should you become aware of difficulties in any one or more of these areas, it is recommended that you undergo testing and consideration for therapy. Learning the sounds that correspond to the letters can be challenging for children in preschool or kindergarten. A history of recurrent ear infections or the insertion of tubes. Any age can be affected by stuttering that lasts longer than three months.

When a kid goes to speech therapy, the therapist focuses on the child's general ability to engage with and take pleasure in his or her surroundings. A patient can typically benefit from Speech-Language Therapy in the following areas: communication; articulation; auditory processing; voice and fluency; and oral motor movements for speech and eating.
