Frequently Asked Questions

  • Connected Care Therapy Group offers occupational therapy (OT), speech-language therapy (SLP), physical therapy (PT), and mental health counseling services for children, teens, and families. Our services are designed to support communication, motor development, sensory needs, emotional regulation, and overall functional independence.

  • Interdisciplinary therapy is a care model where professionals from different specialties—such as OT, SLP, PT, and mental health—may collaborate when it is clinically appropriate. At Connected Care Therapy Group, collaboration is used to support complex needs, improve communication between providers, and enhance treatment outcomes when needed.

    Therapy is individualized based on each child’s strengths, interests, and communication style. Sessions may focus on expanding vocabulary, improving understanding of language, supporting conversation skills, and helping children communicate their needs more effectively in everyday situations.

    In addition to in-person pediatric speech therapy in Rochester, NY, teletherapy services are available for families across New York and South Carolina. Parent coaching is also offered to help caregivers support their child’s communication at home and in daily routines.

  • No. Not all cases require interdisciplinary collaboration.

    At Connected Care Therapy Group, each client receives individualized care based on their needs. Some clients are best supported by a single provider, while others benefit from coordination between multiple disciplines. Collaboration happens only when it is clinically appropriate and beneficial for the client.
