Catalyst
Therapy, Inc. (CTI) is a clinic in Encinitas, CA that specializes in
sensory integration evaluation and treatment. CTI provides an
innovative, eclectic, and holistic approach to therapy. By forming a
partnership with our clients, we aim to spark the energy and commitment
within the individual and/or family that is imperative to enact lasting
change. Our goal is to facilitate an individual’s full potential.
We treat individuals of all ages, with an emphasis on the pediatric population.
We
treat children who have been identified with special needs and
disabilities as well as those who may not have yet been formally
identified but are looking to maximize the potential of their children
and/or themselves.
We offer occupational therapy, speech
and language therapy, and psycho-educational assessments, consultation
and counseling. In addition, we offer groups and training to parents,
teachers, and the general public.
We utilize the latest in
research and evidenced-based practice to provide our clients with the
most comprehensive evaluation and treatment. We aim to facilitate the
full developmental potential of children by offering the highest
quality services possible.
We are family oriented and
believe that parents, caregivers and extended family are an integral
part of the therapy process. It is our goal to specifically train
parents, caregivers and family members so that they can be empowered to
affect positive change toward their child’s progress.
