Services
Out of our knowledge, competency and love, we proudly offer the following services for you and your children:
-
Group infant stimulation program -
Our group program is geared for pre-school children under three years of age. Parent participation is always welcomed but not required. The program meets on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings from 9-11:30 am. It is a global (whole child) program which addresses a child’s needs in gross motor, fine motor, cognition, speech, feeding, oral motor, activities of daily living, and psycho-social areas of development. Children enrolled in the program have individual goals written for each area of development. The program is provided in a one-to-three ratio, with one adult to every three children. -

CAP/Cornerstone Autism Program -
CAP/Cornerstone Autism Program - Intervention is provided to children who are within the Autism Spectrum, or are at high risk. Therapy is comprehensive including the science of Applied Behavioral Analysis, speech/language, occupational, and physical therapies depending upon the individual needs of the child. The program is a one-to-one ratio (one therapist with each child). The services are provided in the natural environment and in the clinic depending on the child’s unique needs and family situation. All children in this program have a parent-education component where the family is expected to attend parent education meetings to go over behavioral strategies, progress, and parental concerns. This program is designed for children birth to three years of age. As part of this program children also have an opportunity to participate in social pragmatic groups with a licensed speech/language pathologist. -
CIP/Cornerstone Individual Program -
This program addresses a child’s global development. If a child is delayed in more than one area, they will have more than one discipline providing services for their child. The program addresses needs in gross motor, fine motor, cognition, speech, activities of daily living, and psycho-social development. Services are provided in a one-on-one therapist to child ratio. The therapy takes place either in the clinic or in the natural environment. Each child’s specialized needs are taken into consideration when determining where therapy would best take place. This program is for children birth to three years of age.
Individual OT.
Occupational Therapy (OT) is the profession that addresses the “occupation” of living at any age. For instance, Occupational Therapy is used to help children with handwriting difficulties which include forming letters with correct spacing and size to succeed in their occupation, which is school. Occupational Therapists address self care, dressing, feeding, sensory regulation and modulation, grapho-motor skills, and fine motor skills. OT can help children master the “job of living” to become as independent in all environments.
It is provided by Licensed Occupational Therapists and Licensed Certified Occupational Therapy Assistants. Occupational Therapists are trained to assess sensory needs, functional levels, handwriting, feeding, and self help skills. OT sessions are tailored to meet each child’s unique needs. Occupational Therapists use a variety of modalities through developmentally appropriate play, arts/crafts, tabletop activities, life skills, sensory activities, strengthening, sensory integration, therapeutic listening, and games to facilitate a child’s optimal functional level.
- Individual PT.
Pediatric Physical Therapy (PT) focuses on evaluation and treatment of children with gross motor limitations resulting from injury, disease, congenital conditions, or developmental delay, with an emphasis on movement dysfunction. The therapeutic intervention, provided by Licensed Physical Therapists and Licensed Physical Therapy Assistants, addresses muscle strength, range of motion, postural control, balance, motor planning, safety, and motor delays. These interventions help maximize a child’s ability to access his/her environment safely and as independently as possible, achieve motor milestones, and reach his/her fullest potential.
Physical Therapists assess a child’s individual needs, determine equipment needs, consult with caregivers, and use a team-oriented approach with other professionals to develop a plan of care specific to each child. They are trained in all stages of a child’s development and able to analyze movement. They use exercise, play, functional activities, games, therapeutic handling, and modalities as treatment techniques. Physical Therapists will continually motivate and challenge your child to reach his/her highest physical level.
- Individual SP.
Speech and Language Therapy (SP) is the treatment of speech, language and cognitive disorders that hamper the person’s ability to process and use communication. Therapy should be conducted by a licensed speech and language pathologist and/or a licensed speech pathology assistant. Therapy may include work on speech (oral motor planning, articulation, phonology, volume, vocal quality, fluency, intonation, rate), receptive language (auditory processing, semantics, syntax, morphology), expressive language (morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics) as well as written forms of symbolic language such as reading and writing.
Licensed Speech and Language Pathologists will assess each child’s unique needs and create a treatment plan to address all areas of concern. Therapy for the younger child is primarily play based, helping the child to learn and use language within functional activities. An older child may have a combination of various styles of therapy in order to address specific speech and language difficulties that may be impacting overall communication and academic performance.
