Abilities Center

Here is what just a few parents are saying about the Abilities Center services. If you have a story, we'd love to hear it send stories to therapy@abilitiescenter.com or submit
here.

My son has been coming here since the age of 2. He has been working on the symptoms of his problems (gross, fine and speech delays). We have gone from not being able to sit unassisted to walking and starting to speak. The staff has worked through many issues, including almost one year of crying when in therapy. No one has ever given up on him and we’ve tried many approaches…basically whatever works. The staff has also worked with me, giving me tips/advice to try at home to reinforce what was done in a therapy session. This has not been an easy road with quick fixes, but I’ve had a long-term partner in it with me for the long haul.
-Undiagnosed – Developmental delay (Jacob, age 6).

My son was language delayed. The staff at the Abilities Center helped him express himself so he was able to let us know what his needs were. His tantrums also reduced significantly as a result of therapy. He entered pre-school and loves it! He has made friends and his teachers praise his abilities.

 The best decision I have ever made was bringing my son Wilder to the Abilities Center. Wilder is autistic, non-verbal, and has many sensory issues. We did previous therapy with no progression. We started at the Abilities Center 6 months ago and we have been moving forward ever since. My child has found ways to communicate his needs to me and I have learned to pick up the cues. We went from daily tantrums to few and far between. My son has improved skills in every area of his life. He makes amazing eye contact, is interactively playing, following simple demands, understanding language, helping to dress himself, eating better, taking baths without tantrums, and most importantly having fun and developing a great sense of humor. The staff at the Abilities Center is like a family, full of ideas and support. I don’t know what we would have done without them. Now, I can see that Wilders’ possibilities for the future are endless. I would recommend this facility to anyone with a special needs child, they work miracles, and they certainly did for us. Ever thankful to the wonderful staff! Holly & Mike (Wilder’s parents).

Thank goodness for the Abilities Center! We brought our son for a sensory integration assessment and subsequent therapy after a pre-school program expelled our son for throwing temper tantrums due to transition difficulties. The Abilities Center focused on our son’s strengths and in so many ways has helped not only our son, but our family. Our son now transitions from task to task without the melt-downs. I would recommend this to any parent who asked me.

My child has made huge advancements since coming here. She had no words and now her vocabulary is amazing. She is able to do self help tasks as simple as feeding herself, which she never did before. She hated to get messy and now loves to play in the sand and with finger paint! She has made significant gains in school also and loves other kids!
