GN INTEGRATED PEDIATRIC
THERAPY, LLC provides comprehensive & quality treatment for infants & children
with special learning & development differences.
We are known for our expertise and unique focus on
sensory integration.
We strive to maintain an intimate, caring environment to help children make
“sense” of their world for effective learning & “living”. We nurture our parents
through education & counseling which goes hand in hand with their child’s
treatment.
Gill (Miss Jill) Nurhonen OTR/L, founder & director, maintains a strong
philosophy:
”
I believe it’s vital, especially when working with a child with coexisting
sensory processing issues, in maintaining a calm, nurturing environment where
the child (and family) feel safe and happy.
Our parents and kids, already lead stressed and busy lives. Clients don’t want
to be overwhelmed in an overcrowded, busy, sausage-machine factory clinic
setting, where the waiting room alone, is a challenge to both the child and the
parent’s sensory systems.
Families trying to cope with their “sensory” kids need a quiet, nurturing place
where they can get the support, education and personal feedback/TLC they need.
In essence, a form of adult "therapy”, so they’re better equipped to be
effective parents, advocates and strategic team members in their child‘s therapy
& development. I’ve found you really cannot do effective treatment and see
carry-over and progress unless you have the parent/caregiver on-board. Therapy
doesn’t just focus on the child; families & parents/caregivers play a huge role
in the therapeutic process.”
