child-led occupational therapy in NE Florida

Healing Your Child’s Nervous System
From the Inside Out

Play-based occupational therapy and feeding support in Northeast Florida. We look beyond behaviors to help your child feel safe, calm, and ready to thrive.

Do Any of These Sound Familiar?

Explosive Meltdowns over Small Shifts. Transitions like leaving the park or putting on shoes trigger huge emotional breakdowns.

Mealtime Battles & Extreme Picky Eating. Gagging, refusing entire food groups, or eating only 2–3 "safe" foods.

Struggling at school. Can't sit still, falling behind in school, constantly crashing into furniture, or unable to wind down.

You are not failing, and your child isn't just "being hard." Their nervous system is overwhelmed.

Stopping the Behavior Isn't Enough—We Fix the Foundation

Most traditional approaches focus only on surface behaviors: rewards, consequences, or forced coping strategies. But when a child's nervous system is out of balance, surface fixes don't last.

  • Deep Nervous System Healing: We use Polyvagal Theory and vagal nerve activation to bring your child's body into a true state of calm and safety.

  • Child-Led, Play-Based Therapy: No force, no rigid drills. Therapy feels like high-engagement play while doing heavy brain-building work under the surface.

  • Parent Co-Regulation Coaching: We give you exact, practical tools to stop meltdowns at home before they start.

Our Difference:

Northeast Florida’s Only Certified CLASI CASI Provider

We use the EASI (Evaluation in Ayres Sensory Integration)—the absolute gold standard in sensory assessment. Instead of quick checklists, the EASI measures exact foundational skill areas:

  • Touch, balance, and body awareness (Tactile, Vestibular, & Proprioceptive)

  • Visual-motor coordination & praxis (motor planning)

  • Postural stability & sensory reactivity

The Result: A complete map of your child’s unique brain setup so we can build a treatment plan that actually works.

Stop guessing why your child is struggling. Get clear, scientific answers.
