Our Process
-
Step 1: Talk to Us
First, submit your information through our form or call us so that we can hear more and answer your questions.
-
Step 2: Benefits Check
Once you learn more about us and decide to move forward in our process, we’ll have you upload your insurance card so our billing team can check your insurance benefits.
-
Step 3: Evaluation & Review Call
Once your benefits are confirmed and you are ready to move forward, we’ll schedule your child for their evaluation and a virtual call of your results with your child’s provider. This is the best part of working with our team: you’ll have a comprehensive review of everything our evaluation process reveals about your child. You’ll also have our plan for support and intervention for home and what we will focus on in sessions.
-
Weekly Sessions
If your child needs intervention, we’ll meet with them once or more per week for six months until they are re-evaluated. You’ll receive their plan, goals, and what to do at home to support their growth, and we’ll meet over video conference every six months to re-connect about where they were, where they are, and where they’re going until they’re ready to complete their plan.
Our Services

Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy is the intervention that connects the dots, gives you the way, and significantly changes quality of daily life. Our OT approach at Young & Well is innovative and specialized in a whole-body integrative approach. We focus on the relationships that affect daily life and support caregivers in understanding their unique child’s needs so that everyone can have quality of and happiness in life.

Speech-Language Pathology
Like everything we do at Young & Well, our speech-language approach is unlike any regular speech session: your child will be moving, integrating their whole body into their sessions! You won’t find us doing practice and drill at a table, but you will find your child leaves our speech sessions a little sweaty and having movement for the day!
-
Psychological/Neuropsychological Evaluations
Our psychological and neuropsychological assessments are designed to capture a young person’s true nature, strengths, and capacities to understand their needs and the best support for reaching their full potential. We communicate the results in a beautifully clear, thorough report and a 90-minute virtual review with caregivers.

More About Occupational Therapy
"Occupational therapy practitioners ask, ‘What matters to you?’, not, ‘What's the matter with you?’" - Virginia "Ginny" Stoffel, AOTA President 2013–2016
“Occupations” are the daily activities people need and want to do. For young people, that can range from needing strong fine motor skills, like handwriting, to gross motor skills, and everything in between, such as sitting to eat, and getting ready to leave the house.
Occupational therapists, specifically pediatric occupational therapists, offer young people a safe and regulated space to practice, learn, and develop the skills they need for these everyday activities.
Play is the work of the child, and our kids have so much fun working together with our therapists!

More About Speech and Language Therapy
“Communication is the essence of human life.” - Dr. Janice Light
Speech Therapy is so much more than just “saying words correctly.” Speech-language pathologists, or SLPs, are experts in communication.
They listen to how our voice and our words sound when we talk. They watch how we communicate with others. They consider how our brains work and the impact it has on our speech. They observe the anatomy and functionality of our oral skills. And then they offer a safe and fun space to practice the skills to improve and offer us the gift of communication.
Young & Well’s speech team uses whole body integration into intervention. The only speech and language therapy practice that gets your child sweating with movement!
