EARLY INTERVENTION SERVICES

NOT KNOWING HOW TO HELP YOUR CHILD CAN FEEL OVERWHELMING

Watching your child struggle can be heartbreaking...but you don’t have to do it alone.

At Nature Kids Therapy, we understand your frustrations and offer a play and brain-based approach that can address your child's challenges and foster their growth.

Our early intervention services are designed for children 18 months to 6 years old with autism or related neurodevelopmental differences who qualify for intensive support. We are excited to be using the evidenced based Play Project® autism intensive early intervention program. Using both in-clinic treatment sessions as well as a parent-implemented model where you put in the time with you child at home, we team up with you to ensure your child receives therapy at the right developmental level—setting them up for success through meaningful, engaging interactions.

Step 4: Evaluation and Consent Paperwork
If we’re a good match, we’ll schedule an evaluation to determine eligibility for services. This includes a thorough review of your child’s developmental, behavioral, and medical history. Usually if a child qualifies, they will receive 1 to 2 hours of services per week in clinic. We’ll give you some consent paperwork and a client handbook to ensure we all on the same page to provide high quality care and treatment.
Step 5: Initial Play Plan
You and your child will meet with your therapist and we will work together to craft a personalized Play Plan complete with an overview of the child's sensory motor profile, functional developmental levels, methods, techniques, and activities to help you make your play sessions fun and effective. This plan is reviewed and updated after 6 months to ensure continued progress.
