Get to know us
Liz and Mikaela have worked side by side since early 2019, building a pediatric program within the medical environment. We quickly became best friends and co-therapists, working together to provide the best therapy with minimal harm and serve the greater Trenton community through our genuine love of the families that we serve. In 2024 it was time for a change. We were done being limited in our capabilities, and structural changes encouraged us to seek the opportunity to take a deep dive and open what we had previously thought was just a dream - our own private pediatric practice! The possibilities are now endless and we are here to provide even more support to the region’s families and children who need us.
Why Us?
We are the only free-standing and/or pediatric-focused therapy center within a 75 mile radius or greater.
We are mothers of neurodivergent children ourselves! We’ve been through the struggles with our own children - from behaviors, to medication management, to IEP’s and 504’s. From socks feeling “wrong” to impulsivity and school struggles. From people “not understanding” us or our children, to advocating for our own children. WE GET IT. And we’re here to support you too.
We’re not just here for therapy. Although that is what we do best! We are also here to attend IEP meetings with you when you need us, lead parent support groups, “steal” your kids for a fun camp or special event activity hosted by our facility, pick up the phone and talk when you are struggling at home, and to overall just be your safe place.
