About Children's Therapy Place - Nampa
Children’s Therapy Place provides speech/language therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, mental health counseling and developmental disabilities agency services for children of all ages.
Abusive staff. After voicing concerns with several staff about behaviors with children and making it known for months nothing was done about it. After setting boundaries and even clients families voicing their concerns their they were ignored and I refused to go to the center and we only did community based services. After a family emergency and voicing additional concerns instead the abuse just got worse way worse.
Since April is child abuse awareness month I thought everyone should know that children's therapy place would like to sweep child molesters under the rug and other forms of child abuse under the rug that are going ignored. Do not put your children on the wait list here.

The occupational therapy process includes an OT evaluation before care starts. Here are the four steps your family can expect when starting occupational therapy:
Complete OT evaluation. An occupational therapist first identifies your strengths and needs through a thorough OT evaluation, also known as an OT assessment or screening. You’ll answer questions about you your skills, and you will most likely demonstrate these skills via hands-on activities with the therapist. Evaluations can last 30 minutes to a couple hours.
Approve OT plan. The therapist develops a care plan with individualized goals and customized interventions based on your needs. You can also share any specific goals or concerns before approving the OT plan.
Start therapy sessions. The therapist works directly with you, using various strategies and exercises to systematically improve areas of limitations and to build upon your strengths. If there are others part of your care team, the therapist may teach strategies for supporting your individualized needs at home and may recommend tools and techniques to use at home, in the community, or in the classroom to help you thrive.
Monitor your progress. You can expect ongoing progress monitoring and communication to ensure you're achieving your short and long-term goals.
