About

Serving children and their families in Rockland County and Orange County, NY since 2005, Children’s Home Therapy Services (CHTS) is committed to helping children with developmental delays and/or disabilities through our work with the New York State Early Intervention Program (EIP) and the Committee on Preschool Special Education (CPSE). The EIP and CPSE programs are respectively funded by NY State Department of Health & NY State Education Department as well as county governments. EIP and CPSE services are provided at no cost to families.

CHTS is exclusively focused on children. Every one of our therapists specializes in treating children, and just as importantly, we love kids! Pediatric therapy sometimes seems to the casual observer as nothing but play, but there is so much more to it. Play is truly the occupation of children - it is how they learn and develop. The most successful therapy sessions are those that present a "just-right challenge." Kids enjoy being challenged as long as there is an opportunity to succeed. Using this approach, we strive to always embed the concept of therapy into toys, games, or crafts that are age and ability-appropriate.

Our goal is to provide treatment that meets high professional standards in an environment that is designed to enhance each child's functional abilities.

Our Philosophy:

• Provide caring, supportive therapy to the involved child
• Educate the child and family about therapy goals and objectives
• Incorporate the goals of the child and family into the treatment plan
• Carry out therapy in a mutually respectful environment
• Facilitate each family's use of available community resources
• Help the child and family integrate activities of therapy into their daily life
