Independent Living Inc. Pediatric Therapy would first like to welcome all parents and caregivers to our website! We hope this page will provide the answers to your questions. Let us make sure you find exactly what you are looking for by asking this simple question:

Does your loved one have any difficulty, or have they been diagnosed, with any of the following?

  • Asperger or Asperger’s Syndrome
  • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or ADHD

  • Baby Crawling
  • Behavior
  • Body Balance

If you have answered yes to any of these, we would like to offer your loved one a FREE developmental screening as we specialize in many developmental services. We provide services for community based therapy (home, clinic or school) as we believe children are most responsive when in their natural environment. We also provide occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech-language therapy, early intervention, and psychological and behavioral therapy. We also have our “When To Refer” guidelines that will assist you better as it provides more details than the ones highlighted above.

Our therapists are trained and certified in a variety of treatment approaches, e.g. Therapeutic Listening™. Please visit Our Therapist Certifications page for details. Independent Living Inc. also works with many state programs, e.g. Early Steps, and you may find a list on Our State Programs page.

If you are looking for a specific clinic location, please visit Our Locations page.
