Approach

TEIS Therapists are all employees, not independent contractors. Our Therapists will listen to your concerns, assess your child’s individual needs, develop a customized treatment plan, and educate you along the way on simple solutions to maximize your child’s development that incorporate his or her natural environment and routines. TEIS Therapists will build strong relationships with you and your child based on mutual respect. Your trust and confidence, along with your child’s progress, are TEIS’ top priorities

Training

TEIS Therapists consistently exceed the minimum of 24 hours of continuing education courses each year. Therapists travel all over the country to attend specialized seminars. Transfer of knowledge to the entire TEIS team is accomplished through bi-weekly, inter-disciplinary trainings presented by our therapists and local experts. Inter-disciplinary mentoring is integral to our education formula. All therapists are current with their Pennsylvania certifications and discipline licenses

TEIS commitment to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion

TEIS is committed to taking a proactive and inclusive approach to ensure all families feel listened to, supported, and empowered on a daily basis during our home and community-based sessions. We are committed to both respecting and honoring each family’s background, which includes a wide range of cultures, religions, identities, beliefs, and values. As an organization, TEIS continues to expand the cultural humility training our therapists and staff receive on an ongoing basis. We are continually enhancing the family friendly, culturally sensitive, resources that we offer to families, and actively advocate for all children and families by routinely participating in local community events. We are 100% committed to do all that we can to ensure that each child, caregiver, and family is safe from discrimination and has as many tools and resources as possible to ensure each and every child flourishes. We look forward to partnering with you and your family in your child’s development!
