About US

Adapt Therapy was started by two therapists who want to make a positive impact and give back to the community they grew up in. These therapists and their team provide exceptional therapy services and are a valuable resource for families.

Adapt Therapy is passionate about providing opportunities for growth through functional exploration and play in your natural environment. Through play and exploration, your child will be able to learn adapted responses that promote functional independence and self-confidence to give them the ability to adapt to any setting.

Established in 2021

Our GOAL

Every child deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential. At Adapt Therapy, we empower them to do just that.
​

Our goal is to provide you and your child with the functional skills, knowledge, independence, and self-confidence to adapt to whatever life throws your way. Through exceptional therapeutic interventions and functional skill development (and lots of play!), we do just that.
