Is Your Child Ready for School Success? Schedule Your OT, PT, and Speech Therapy Sessions Now

As another school year gets underway, many Brooklyn parents are navigating familiar concerns: Is my child really ready for what’s ahead? Can they master scissors and pencils? Will they keep up on the playground?

If you’ve noticed your child struggling with these everyday skills, you’re not alone, and help is closer than you think. 

A Different Approach to Pediatric Therapy

Growing Gains Therapy is a therapist-owned practice that brings occupational, physical, and speech therapy directly to families throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan. What makes them different? They come to you, whether that’s your living room, a local park, or a nearby sensory gym. 

“Every child develops at their own pace,” says Christine Beavers, PT, DPT, founder of Growing Gains Therapy. “Our job is meeting families exactly where they are and helping children build confidence through their strengths.”

Real Skills for Real Life

Growing Gains focuses on the skills children actually need for daily success:

OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY

  • Handwriting, school readiness, and fine motor skills
  • Sensory processing and emotional regulation
  • Executive functioning and organization
  • Self-care skills and daily living activities

PHYSICAL THERAPY

  • Walking, running, jumping, and movement fundamentals
  • Balance, coordination, and core strength
  • Sports skills and playground confidence
  • Building endurance and stamina for daily activities

SPEECH THERAPY

  • Speech clarity and language development
  • Social communication and peer interaction
  • Following directions and expressing ideas
  • Alternative communication support when helpful

A Partnership Approach

Unlike large agencies where families wait months to be assigned to any available therapist, Growing Gains carefully matches each child with a therapist based on personality and specific needs. The practice believes parents are the true experts on their children, while therapists serve as knowledgeable guides who help families build on what they already know and provide specialized tools for continued growth.

This collaboration extends beyond therapy sessions through regular insights about progress, practical strategies for home and school, and honest communication about what’s working well and where adjustments might be needed.

Getting Started

Growing Gains Therapy serves families throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan with both private-pay services and support for DOE-funded compensatory services when awarded. If you’ve been wondering whether therapy might help your child, Growing Gains offers the expertise and flexibility that busy Brooklyn families need.
