It all started when Suzie Johannes, PT, and Lisa Dolphin, OT, dreamed of a place where children of all abilities could thrive while cultivating their joy. They envisioned an intimate, therapist-owned practice that would provide the quality of care they would want for their own children.
Recognizing that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all solution, they aimed to create a setting where they could collaborate with each family to develop individualized plans that lead to the best possible outcomes. With a strong belief that all families deserve to be treated like family, Proactive Pediatric Therapy was born in 2019, marking the beginning of a nurturing community dedicated to empowering children and their families on their unique journeys.
open communication, collaboration, and individualized care, ensuring that each child’s unique needs and strengths are recognized and celebrated. Our team is committed to empowering families through:
We need a referral from your child’s primary care physician (PCP) or healthcare professional (HCP). Please ask your child’s PCP or HCP to send/fax a referral to ProActive Pediatric Therapy for the therapy services that will best help address your child’s needs. Not sure? No worries, give us a call and we can help decide which therapy (PT, OT, or Speech) is appropriate.
Our office manager will call you to register your child and get insurance information. Our billing team will check your insurance coverage benefits for outpatient therapy and email you an estimated cost for therapy.
Our office manager will call/text you to schedule an evaluation. Evaluations last ~90 minutes. During the evaluation, we will carefully listen to your goals and concerns and our therapist will complete various assessments to identify the underlying reasons for your child’s struggles. Should your child qualify for therapy services, we will schedule therapy appointments and plan to get started right away.
Trust your instincts. You are correct in being proactive in seeking help for your child rather than “waiting”. Our amazing ProActive Team is here to help give you peace of mind!
We’ve seen firsthand the transformation that occurs when children are provided with the right support. Families often share their joy as their children achieve milestones they once thought were out of reach. Together, we can create a brighter future for your child, filled with growth, joy, and newfound confidence.
