Our Services
Multidisciplinary Therapy Services
At Behaviors NYC, we believe children make the most meaningful progress when care is thoughtful, individualized, and collaborative. Our multidisciplinary team provides Occupational Therapy, Speech & Language Therapy, Physical Therapy, Feeding Therapy, and Applied Behavior Analysis, working together to support each child’s development across home, school, and community settings. This coordinated approach allows us to address the whole child while promoting consistency, confidence, and long-term skill development.
Occupational Therapy
Our licensed occupational therapists (OTR/L) provide individualized evaluations and treatment plans focused on improving sensory integration, motor coordination, self-care skills, and functional routines. Therapy is designed to help children build confidence, increase independence, and generalize skills across environments. When appropriate, Occupational Therapy services are coordinated with Speech Therapy, Physical Therapy, Feeding Therapy, and ABA to support comprehensive and consistent progress.
Speech and Language Therapy
Speech and Language Therapy at Behaviors supports children who experience difficulties with communication, language development, speech clarity, and social interaction. Communication challenges can impact learning, relationships, and emotional expression across all settings.
Our licensed speech-language pathologists (SLP-CCC) conduct thorough evaluations and develop individualized treatment plans to support expressive and receptive language, articulation, social-pragmatic skills, and alternative or augmentative communication (AAC) when appropriate. Therapy focuses on building functional communication skills that can be used confidently at home, in school, and within the community. Services may be coordinated with Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, Feeding Therapy, and ABA to support carryover and skill generalization.
Physical Therapy
Physical Therapy at Behaviors supports children who experience challenges with gross motor development, strength, balance, coordination, posture, and mobility. Motor delays can impact a child’s ability to participate in play, school activities, and daily routines.
Our licensed physical therapists (PT) provide individualized assessments and treatment plans focused on improving functional movement skills such as walking, running, climbing, balance, and endurance. Therapy is designed to promote safe and confident movement while supporting overall physical development and independence. Physical Therapy services may be provided independently or in collaboration with Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy, Feeding Therapy, and ABA to support a well-rounded approach to care.
Feeding Therapy
Feeding Therapy at Behaviors supports children who experience feeding challenges such as food selectivity, sensory sensitivities, oral-motor difficulties, aversions to textures or tastes, and stressful mealtime routines. Feeding challenges can affect nutrition, growth, and family dynamics.
Our feeding therapy services are provided by licensed clinicians, including speech-language pathologists and occupational therapists, with specialized training in feeding and swallowing. Treatment plans are individualized and address the sensory, motor, and behavioral components of feeding, with a focus on gradually increasing food acceptance, improving oral-motor skills, and creating positive mealtime experiences. Feeding Therapy may be coordinated with Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy, Physical Therapy, and ABA to support consistent, lasting progress for both the child and family.
