About Our Facility
Our home-based clinic is located just South of Bank Street and Albion Road in South-Central Ottawa. Children work best in situations that are as close to their natural settings as possible. With the clinic located in a home, it has less of a ‘medical’ atmosphere. It has sensory rich activities and equipment to promote sensorimotor development and facilitation of an optimal level of arousal for skill building.
Depending on the physical requirements and parents’ schedules, children can also be treated in their own homes, schools, daycares, ABA centres and preschools located across the City of Ottawa and in neighbouring geographic zones.
Virtual Therapy is available as an option for clients across the province of Ontario.
