Frequently Asked Questions

Do you take insurance?

 

Presently, I am “private pay only” for therapy services. Upon request, I will provide invoices for you to submit to your insurance company.

My child is a picky eater. How do I make mealtimes less of a struggle?

 

Play2Learn uses the SOS approach to Feeding, which is a developmental feeding therapy that allows a child to interact and learn about foods in a playful, non-stressful environment.

Through play, a child learns to explore the properties of the foods including color, shape, texture, smell, and taste.

The child usually meets with the Occupational Therapist weekly, and along with the parents involvement, home exercise, and therapeutic activities, children will learn to explore new foods.

What do I do with my child who cannot hold a pencil?

 

Children don’t always have the appropriate upper body strength, hand strength, and/or hand function to hold a pencil correctly.

Through assessment, the therapist will determine which specific areas need to be addressed to develop this appropriate skill.

My child’s handwriting is illegible. What can I do to help?

 

Difficulty with handwriting is often a result of a lack of adequate visual perceptual skills.

Children with difficulties in this area do not automatically pick up visual details.

The therapist will look at the child’s visual perceptual areas of concerns and will provide meaningful activities to address this area.

“I have been taking my 9 year old son, Ben, to Play2Learn since he was 18 months old. We have seen Marla, Donna, and Jill. They really care about my son. I am so grateful for all their help. When Ben is receiving services there, his behavior is so much better. I’ve taken several breaks throughout the years due to busy schedules. But when my sons behavior tanks, I know we need to go back snd see Marla. Marla has been instrumental in Ben’s development. I highly recommend Play2Learn. My son has Autism, severe ADHD, sensory processing issues, and social pragmatic language disorder. Play2Learn has helped Ben with all of these.”
