Intensive Therapy Packages
The PROMPT Intensive
There's more than one reason families choose an intensive.
-
Accelerating progress before kindergarten, a new school year, or an upcoming IEP
-
Taking advantage of summer break or another flexible stretch in the schedule
-
Visiting the Chicago area and making the most of their time here
-
Ready to see what daily, focused intervention can do
What is it?
Daily, one-on-one PROMPT speech therapy for children with Childhood Apraxia of Speech. One hour a day, Monday through Friday, for two, four, or six weeks. PROMPT is a hands-on approach that targets the physical movements behind speech — guiding the jaw, lips, and tongue to build the motor plans children with CAS need. We have two Level 1 Trained speech-language pathologists on staff.
Program Options
Jump-Start 2 weeks 10 hours $1,750
Accelerator 4 weeks 20 hours $3,500
Momentum 6 weeks 30 hours $5,250
Why it works
CAS is a motor speech disorder. Progress comes through repetition. Weekly therapy offers one practice opportunity per week. This offers five. Families who have been through an intensive often describe it as the moment things finally started moving.

The AAC Support Package
Getting a device is just the beginning.
Most families leave their AAC evaluation with a device and very little guidance on what to do next. Learning to use it, modeling it consistently, and helping your child build real communication takes ongoing support. That is exactly what this package is designed to provide.
What is it?
A four-session coaching package for families navigating AAC. Sessions are a mix of direct work with your child and hands-on coaching with you, so you leave each session with practical strategies you can use immediately at home, at school, and in the community.
What we cover
-
How to model AAC naturally throughout your child's day
-
Core vocabulary: what it is, why it matters, and how to teach it
-
Device setup, organization, and customization for your child's needs
-
Strategies for school: how to support your child's team and advocate effectively
-
Building communication opportunities into daily routines
Sessions: 4 (mix of child therapy and parent coaching)
Pricing: $800 total ($200 per session)
Format: In-person at our Naperville clinic
Who this is for
-
Families who recently received an AAC device and are not sure where to start
-
Caregivers who feel like the device is not being used consistently at home or school
-
Families preparing for a school transition or IEP meeting
-
Anyone who wants more confidence and clarity with AAC

The Reflex Integration Intensive
Understanding retained reflexes, knowing which ones are affecting your child, and actually doing something about it takes more than a weekly appointment. That is exactly what this program is designed to provide.
What is it?
Daily, one-on-one occupational therapy for children with retained primitive reflexes. One hour a day, Monday through Thursday, for two or four weeks. Primitive reflexes are automatic movement patterns that emerge before birth and are meant to integrate into the background as the nervous system matures. When they don't, attention, coordination, learning, and behavior can all take a hit. Reflex integration therapy uses targeted movement and sensory input to help the nervous system finish what it started.
Program Options
Root 2 weeks 8 hours $1,000
Rise 4 weeks 16 hours $2,000
Why it works
Retained reflexes are a nervous system issue. Progress comes through repetition. Weekly therapy offers one practice opportunity per week. This offers four. Families often notice shifts in places they weren't expecting — not just motor skills, but focus, emotional regulation, and how their child carries themselves day to day.
