Our Vision

Creative Therapies of WNY, PLLC loves helping children reach their potential. We believe in the extensive research that has been done in the field of child development. The data collected has proven that a child's brain can learn the most in the first two years of life.

We feel early services for children whose healthy development is compromised and therefore exhibit a developmental delay, diagnosis, or are at-risk are extremely important. Physical/occupational therapies, special instruction, or speech-language services can optimize a child with special needs to excel prior to the challenges of preschool/kindergarten.

Our services are provided in a naturalistic setting. We feel that encouraging parents or caregiver involvement is a top priority. Young children learn best in environments that they are comfortable in. Typically, this would be the child's home or daycare setting.

We are big on helping parents/caregivers facilitate learning between sessions. We support parents in meeting their responsibilities to nurture and enhance their children's development. Creative Therapies of WNY, PLLC providers (therapists and teachers) enhance child development and functional outcomes/goals as well as improve family life through the delivery of effective, outcome/goal/object-based high-quality services.
