Every child develops at their own pace, but if you have concerns about your child's development, it's worth talking with your pediatrician. You may also consider an evaluation if your child is having difficulty with communication, movement, coordination, sensory processing, feeding, self-care skills, handwriting, learning through play, or meeting developmental milestones. An evaluation can help determine whether therapy would be beneficial and identify the best next steps. Trust your instincts—you know your child best.

Yes. A referral from your child's pediatrician or healthcare provider is required before we can schedule an evaluation. If you have questions about obtaining a referral, our team is happy to help guide you through the process.

Consistency is key to making progress! Regular attendance allows your child to build skills, maintain momentum, and get the most out of their therapy experience. When sessions are frequently missed, it can be harder to maintain progress and may slow your child’s overall development toward their goals.

We understand that life happens and that children get sick, schedules change, and unexpected things come up. Our attendance policy is designed to balance flexibility for families while making sure therapy spots are being used consistently and that we can serve as many families as possible.

Our attendance expectations:

• Please provide at least 24 hours' notice when canceling a session. Cancellations with less than 24 hours' notice are subject to our late-cancellation fee.

• Make-up sessions are offered regularly. If your child needs to miss a session, we encourage you to take advantage of a make-up opportunity when available so your child can maintain consistency with therapy.

• Please do not miss more than 3 scheduled sessions within a 6-month period. This includes cancellations and missed appointments.

• After-school and Friday appointments are our most popular and highly requested time slots. If your child has one of these coveted spots, we ask that families prioritize consistent attendance.

• If more than 2 consecutive sessions are missed without scheduling or taking advantage of an available make-up session, we may need to offer that recurring appointment time to another family. This allows us to provide services to as many children as possible and helps decrease wait times for families waiting for a consistent therapy spot.

Our goal is not to penalize families for the occasional missed appointment — our goal is to provide consistent, effective therapy while making the best use of our limited appointment availability. We appreciate families partnering with us to make attendance a priority!

Evaluation appointments typically last 60–90 minutes, depending on the therapy service. Ongoing treatment sessions are generally 30–90 minutes, based on your child's individual needs and treatment plan.

Absolutely! Many children benefit from a combination of occupational therapy (OT), physical therapy (PT), and speech-language therapy (ST). Our therapists work together to create a coordinated plan of care, ensuring your child receives comprehensive support while working toward shared goals.

Adventure Pediatric Therapy accepts most major insurance plans. Coverage varies depending on your insurance provider and individual policy, including deductibles, copays, and authorization requirements. If you have questions about your benefits, we recommend contacting your insurance provider directly using the number on the back of your insurance card.

Every child is unique, so therapy frequency is based on your child's individual needs, goals, and therapist recommendations. Many children attend therapy two to three times per week, while others may benefit from a different schedule. We'll discuss our recommendations after the evaluation and adjust the plan as your child grows and progresses.

The length of therapy varies for every child and depends on their individual needs, goals, diagnosis, and progress. Some children achieve their goals in just a few months, while others benefit from ongoing therapy over a longer period. Your therapist will regularly monitor your child's progress, adjust goals as needed, and work closely with you to determine the appropriate duration of services. Our goal is always to help your child build the skills they need to thrive while supporting their independence every step of the way.

We will do everything we can to make sure your child doesn’t miss out on therapy!

One of the things that makes Adventure Pediatric Therapy special is that we are a small, close-knit clinic. Our therapists know all of our clients—not just the children on their individual caseloads.

Our goal is to create a community of support, rather than a one-on-one relationship that exists only between a child and their regular therapist. We believe children benefit from having a whole team of people who know them, understand their strengths and needs, and are invested in their success.

This is also part of our commitment to neuroaffirming care throughout the entire clinic experience. Neuroaffirming care doesn't start and stop when a therapy session begins—it is part of how we interact with children and families, how we approach therapy, and the environment we create every time you walk through our doors.

Because our therapists work closely together and know our clients, another member of our therapy team may be able to step in when your child's regular therapist is sick, on vacation, or otherwise unavailable. When appropriate, we will coordinate care so your child can continue working toward their goals without an unnecessary interruption.

We truly are a team. Our goal is to make sure your child feels supported, understood, and cared for—wherever they are and whoever is working with them.
