Welcome TO Central PA Therapy Connections!
we build new skills through play!
At Central PA Therapy Connections, we provide exceptional speech, feeding, and occupational therapy services to children and families in the PA area.
Our team works closely with families to ensure that our sessions are tailored to the goals that matter most to you. Together, we will look at the big picture to help your child thrive— considering how they eat, move, play, communicate, and learn.
Our state-of-the-art sensory gym makes learning feel like play. Your child will swing, spin, climb, jump, and triumph over obstacle courses as they gain confidence in their new skills!
Speech therapy
Help for children who are late to talk, difficult to understand, struggling to express themselves, stuttering, or having difficulty with social communication. We also support children who use AAC to communicate.
feeding therapy
From picky eating and difficulty trying new foods to challenges with textures and chewing, we help children build comfort and skills around eating while supporting families along the way.
occupational therapy
Support for everyday challenges like handwriting, using utensils, getting dressed, fine motor skills, sensory processing, and participating in daily routines.
sensory processing
Support for children who experience sensory sensitivities, seek extra sensory input, or feel overwhelmed by everyday sounds, textures, and environments. We help children build skills to feel more comfortable and participate in daily activities.
