KIDS CAN PEDIATRIC OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY

What an incredible loving group Kids Can is! My son started this process nervous and closed off and in such a short time, we saw results we could have never imagined...and it was his favorite part of his week. I never imagined getting a call so soon that he no longer needs to attend but the work done was done so well and with so much love

Emily at Kids Can is a rock star! When [name withheld] began OT in fall 2017 at 17 years old he had a long list of diagnoses which despite years of doctors and therapies had only gotten worse. Added to his autism and Tourette’s was a form of ticcing that would last for days and had even resulted in hospitalization. Since [name withheld] was unable to predict the attacks he had become a recluse. Emily immediately saw what no one else ever had! [name withheld] had an undiagnosed vestibular condition that was drastically affecting every area of his life. Tasks that so many of us take for granted such as standing still, turning your head from side to side and even laying down created such a devastating imbalance the only way [name withheld] body could stabilize was to severely tic. Emily’s gentleness and sincere understanding of the problem has changed [name withheld] life! She developed a plan just for him and progress was immediately noticeable. In the span of a year my son went from his whole world consisting of his room with almost no outside contact to eagerly diving into new and challenging experiences. Over the summer 2018, [name withheld] went tubing on the lake, hiked on uneven ground, and even climbed on a wall to look into a ravine at Tallulah Falls. There aren’t words for the happiness you feel when you see your child feeling confid
