Developmental Therapy

What is Development Therapy?
A Special Instructor typically has a background in education or child development and experience working with children under the age of five. They assist children in the areas of cognitive development, communication, physical skills, social/emotional skills, and adaptive/self-help skills. The Special Instructor will incorporate learning opportunities that positively impact the child’s growth related to these areas of development.
Our Approach
STARS has a dedicated team of therapists that are committed to providing your child and family with quality early intervention services. STARS’ therapists are state licensed and/or hold a Bachelor, Master, or Doctorate degree in their area of expertise. Continuing education is essential and all therapists are required to complete at least 24 hours of training each year. At STARS, we recognize that parents and caregivers know their children better than anyone, and are committed to making family/caregivers an integral part of treatment sessions.
