Finding the root cause.

Your child is struggling at home, in the classroom, or with their peers. It is holding them back from doing the things they love — and your family's quality of life.

Our Approach

At SLOT, we specialize in identifying the root cause of these challenges, providing sensory-based OT, and using the DIR Floortime approach to navigate them through neuro-affirming care.

Lauren built SLOT to provide consistent appointment times and the flexibility to meet families wherever the challenges are occurring: home, school, or community.

Lauren is truly exceptional. She took the time to understand our son's unique sensory needs and created a plan that actually works. Within a few months we saw real, lasting changes at home and at school. We are so grateful.
