However you choose to give, THANK YOU!

REASONS TO GIVE:

Watch out, here comes TROUBLE!!! Emma has been with us at The Therapy Place since 2011 in every capacity. She is a graduate of our Bridges Preschool Program, TheraSuit Program, participates in various therapies and her family even joins in on the fun of Family Fun Days, Family Fest and anything else they can get involved in. They are a true TTP Family. Emma has come such a long way! Believe it or not, she used to be shy, quiet and almost scared to try new things. NOT anymore! She has certainly come out of her shell. The progression with her fine motor skills allows her to maneuver her powered wheelchair. Her verbalization has increased to reveal her sense of humor which will certainly earn her “Wittiest and Most Popular” in the years to come.

 Energetic, super happy, very expressive, Josiah is fairly new to TTP and the Bridges Preschool Program. He is working on independence, feeding himself, trying new and different textures to eat, learning to check his visual schedule, transition tasks, recognize shapes, letters and answering questions. Josiah has no problems with confidence and loves to be the star of the show! He’s also working on posture and balance in physical therapy and will soon hope to complete an obstacle course with help from his friends cheering him on! He stops at the front desk every morning and starts our day off with a warm greeting.

 Braxton and his family have been involved at TTP nearly since our opening. A graduate of the Bridges preschool, repeat TheraSuit sessions and multiple therapies over the years make this sweetie a true champion! Braxton’s successes are felt throughout TTP as his smile captivates all of our hearts!

Three year-old Eli is in our Bridges Preschool program. He had a stroke in utero that has left his right side weak. Eli gets excited to rake the sticky Squigz toys off the mirror which strengthens his hands. He uses his Ipad to make choices at circle time, snack, and center time. And believe it or not, Eli’s giggle is even better than the smiles you see here on the playground!

This infectious smile belongs to Brynn. Autism has not stopped Brynn or her mother from reaching for the stars for her! Brynn is a graduate of our Bridges Program and now is excelling in her schoolwork at home with mom. She is learning to increase her attention span through yoga poses with her occupational therapist and continuing that concept with her ballet lessons. It is fun things like yoga and ballet along with games such as obstacle courses that help Brynn focus her attention on learning larger concepts like reading and writing. Brynn and her family also participate in TTP’s Family Fun Days. We like to see smiles from the whole family here at The Therapy Place, Inc.!

Enzo loves attention and hugs and with that sweet, bright smile, he has no problem getting them both! He is so smart and reads above his grade level! His autism diagnosis has inhibited his social skills and makes it difficult to express himself. All of his therapists work to help him learn appropriate responses in a variety of environments by practicing these social skills in each discipline of therapy that he receives. He can now express his wants and needs effectively. Grandmother is a huge support for him carrying over all the skills taught to him in therapy. Again, this family is very involved and finds comfort in all that we offer here at The Therapy Place.
