We are frequently approached by parents who are frustrated with lack of resources in their area or lack of progress in spite of months and even years in traditional therapy. Due to our busy intensive schedule, we are unable to meet the needs of each parent that approaches us for weekly visits. When parents are looking for something more than traditional therapy, we offer developmental wellness visits.
These are a good fit for parents and caregivers willing to take charge of their child’s development through a strong home program and intermittent visits, as needed.
The wellness visit includes:
- An evaluation to provide a well-rounded picture of the child’s baseline abilities
- Setting goals for the child’s progress
- A home program that will be taught to the parents/ caregivers through demonstration, videos and a PDF file to share with others who would be willing to implement the home program*
- Personalized care for your child
- Access to Franchesca Cox, to guide you through the home program with any questions via email or text
Follow up visits are encouraged but not required to follow up with the child’s progress and update goals as needed.
Developmental wellness visits can be done in-person at our Houston clinic or virtually. This is especially beneficial for families that are unable to book intensives with us and for families out-of-state and abroad.
Developmental wellness visits typically take 75-90 minutes, to evaluate the child and teach a home program that will benefit the child’s progress for months to come.
To book a developmental wellness evaluation please email hello@therahappy.com.
*This does not include instruction or communication to the child’s outside therapist(s). While home programs may be shared with the child’s other therapists, direct instruction to the child’s therapists is not a part of this program, but can be added on for an additional fee as it will require more time to teach multiple people.
