SENSORY INTENSIVE
Our Sensory Intensive is designed for children ages 3-6 who benefit from sensory support alongside speech and language development. Co-led by a licensed speech-language pathologist and occupational therapist, this week-long program provides a structured, play-based environment to support sensory regulation, motor skills, and communication. Through movement, hands-on activities, and engaging interactions, children will build essential skills while having fun!

DAILY SCHEDULE
9:00am - 12:00pm
Each day begins with a structured group circle time followed by a mix of child-led and guided activities, including sensory play, movement breaks, crafts, and motor-based tasks. Children will also participate in snack time and both group and individualized therapy sessions led by a speech-language pathologist and occupational therapist.
THERAPEUTIC APPROACH
Every session focuses on supporting sensory regulation, communication, and motor development through a combination of structured activities and free play. With individualized goals in mind, therapists use a mix of direct instruction, hands-on sensory experiences, and play-based learning to encourage meaningful skill development in a supportive environment.
INTERDISCIPLINARY MODEL
Co-led by an SLP and OT, this camp provides individualized therapeutic support within a small group setting. This collaborative approach helps us support the whole child—all while keeping learning playful and fun! Clinicians set personalized goals, track progress, and offer daily feedback to families. At the end of the camp, caregivers receive a progress summary, and a superbill is provided for insurance reimbursement.
