Our Philosophy
At Sensory Playhouse, we believe that every child has unique strengths and abilities. We take a child-centered, play-based approach to therapy, following the child's lead and making sessions fun and engaging. We strongly believe in the power of the parent-therapist partnership and encourage family participation in all sessions. Our goal is not just to address challenges in the clinic, but to provide families with the tools and strategies they need to support their child's development every day.
