Our Services

Therapy Services and Specialized Programming

The Talcott Center for Child Development offers extensive programming designed to meet the needs of your child. Occupational, speech and physical therapy services are offered within our state-of-the-art therapy clinic. We also provide Applied Behavioral Analysis services within the home, community and clinic environment. In addition to individualized therapy treatment, we provide a full day autism program, as well as a variety of group services and specialized camp programs in order to address a wide range of skills and individual needs.

Following your initial intake meeting with our administrators, together we will collaborate to determine the best course of programming for your child. Prior to initiating therapeutic services, your child will undergo an assessment by our skilled clinical team. The assessment may be completed by one therapist, or several clinicians across disciplines, depending on your child’s needs. The assessment may range from a comprehensive clinical screening, in order to determine accurate placement into group programming, or an in-depth behavioral evaluation, in order to formulate a comprehensive treatment program. As each child presents with their own unique concerns, these initial steps are essential in order to develop a customized and effective program for your child.

Testimonials

What Our Families Have to Say

"When I think about what Talcott Center means to me and my family, so many emotions come to mind it’s difficult to put them into words. From the moment I entered Talcott with my daughter Eden, I could feel the love and compassion the therapists and staff had not only for my child, but also for me."
"The Talcott Center for Child Development has been nothing short of a miracle for me and my family, and yet to call it as such would be discrediting all of the countless hours of hard work their staff has put in to help us be where we are today."
"The Talcott Center for Child Development is our son’s home away from home. They love and nurture him and help him develop and grow in ways I never thought possible. It is a wonderful feeling to take him to therapy everyday knowing that he is in a place where his uniqueness is appreciated."
