Sensory Stars Pediatric Therapy Services :
screenings:
1.) Handwriting Screening- A quick 10-15 minute screening will evaluate your child’s handwriting for letter formation, sizing, visual-spatial skills and line orientation. The cost for this screening is $40. (*Please note- There is a lot that goes into handwriting skills and a referral may be made for a full OT Evaluation if recommended by our Occupational Therapists.)
2.) Speech & Occupational Therapy Screeners - 10-20 minute screening to evaluate if a further Evaluation is required for either discipline. Cost of the screener would be applied to an Evaluation if needed. The cost is $70 per screener and will be applied to a comprehensive evaluation if needed.
Occupational therapy , PHYSICAL THERAPY & SPEECH THERAPY evaluations:
*ALL EVALUATIONS REQUIRE A $50 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT TO HOLD YOUR CHILD’S EVALUATION APPOINTMENT.
Therapy Comprehensive Evaluation (OT, PT & Speech) - This evaluation takes approximately 60-90 minutes to complete and incorporates the use of standardized testing (ex. Beery-VMI, DTVP-4, Sensory Processing Measure, BOT, Peabody, Sensory Profile, CELF, PLS-5,...etc.) as well as clinical observations. Parents/Caregivers will receive a multi-page written report with our clinical recommendations. Our optimal delivery of results would be in person in order to go over the evaluation results and recommendations as well as have parent/caregiver input towards treatment plan and goals. However, we are accommodating to all family needs and can deliver results via mail, e-mail as well as over the phone. The cost for this evaluation is $300.00.
individual occupational therapy, Physical THERAPY & SPEECH THERAPY sessions
After an thorough evaluation, Sensory Stars Pediatric Therapy will make recommendations based off your child's individualized needs and look forward to working with your family in order to develop functional goals for your child's plan of care. The evaluating Therapist will determine the need of services and what the frequency of services will be each week. Sensory Stars Pediatric Therapy prides itself looking at the "whole-child" and believes in the child-directed approach along with sensory motor based interventions. The unique approach to therapy sessions is often viewed as "What are they doing? It looks like they are just Playing!"
Why does it just look like we are playing ?!
Your child's main occupation is PLAY and PLAY is very motivating for children. Play is how your child learns and develops their skills for home, school & the community!!! We utilize toys and games in a therapeutic way and specifically set up the environment in order to promote participation and build fundamental skills.
