My Approach

Assuming Competence is the belief and treatment philosophy that all individuals are smart and capable, and therefore deserve to be treated with respect and dignity, regardless of the skills, language, and intelligence they can demonstrate outwardly. Therapy Foundations is committed to finding strategies and therapy techniques to aid and support individuals in their journey to find independence and overcome challenges.

 

Therapy Foundations assesses and treats individuals based on the neurological needs of each client. The human brain is capable of growing, adapting, and building new neural pathways regardless of age or diagnosis - this is called “neuroplasticity”. We assess an individual’s neurological, sensory, and motor systems, find the root cause of behavior, movement or communication challenges, and create a customized program of therapy techniques to address it.

 

Therapy Foundations is dedicated to helping individuals demonstrate their full cognitive abilities by integrating therapy strategies into everyday life. We are a music therapy clinic that also incorporates the philosophies of sensory integration, primitive reflex integration, brain hemisphere balance, and assuming competence. 

 

With over 20 years of therapy experience, Therapy Foundations serves children and adults with developmental and neurologic delays including autism, sensory processing disorder, ADHD, oppositional defiant disorder and more.
