EVALUATIONS & THERAPY

Myna Therapy Services offers evaluations and speech, occupational, and physical therapy services for children of all ages throughout West Fargo, Fargo, Dilworth, and Moorhead. ​We take a holistic approach by supporting your child's development and overall wellness!

Beginning With an Evaluation to Understand Your Child's Needs

At Myna Therapy Services, we take time to learn about your child's interests, observe their current skills, and look deeper into any areas of concern you may have.

 

We will complete a formal evaluation to determine how your child's development compares to children of the same age - allowing us to confirm and document their strengths and challenges. We may also observe your child while they play, eat, move, and interact with others.

​

Once the evaluation is complete, you will receive a written report and a treatment plan that includes therapy goals. This report includes our professional recommendations, referrals (if needed), and other resources that may be useful for your family.

What Therapy Looks Like at Myna Therapy Services

Our sessions are tailored to your child's unique interests, strengths, and needs to make therapy engaging and effective! Sessions may include:

​

  • Arts and crafts

  • Storybook reading

  • Climbing, jumping, and movement activities

  • Pretend play scenarios and toys

  • Scavenger hunts

  • Food exploration

  • Hands-on activities

​

You are always encouraged to be an active participant in your child's therapy sessions! Children meet their goals more quickly when parents and caregivers observe, learn new strategies, and ask/answer questions throughout the process.

Speech, Social Skills, and Feeding Therapy

Speech & Language Therapy

Is your child hard to understand, or does your child seem to have a hard time expressing themselves or understanding what is said? Speech therapy sessions combine games, play, and fun activities to help your child:

​

  • Speak more clearly

  • Improve self-confidence and reduce frustration

  • Improve literacy skills

  • Learn and understand new vocabulary

  • Follow directions

Social Skills Therapy

If your child struggles to interact or communicate socially, often feels left out, or has trouble making and keeping friends, we can help! We use videos, social scenes, and games to help your child:

​

  • Build social confidence

  • Practice conversational skills

  • Self-advocate when needed

  • Navigate and solve social problems or conflicts

  • Understand social nuances and hidden meanings

Feeding & Swallowing Therapy

We understand how stressful it can be when your child only eats a limited number of foods... not to mention how tiring it is to make more than one meal at each mealtime. We will support your family during your normal daily routines by equipping you with strategies and proven techniques to help your child:

​

  • Explore new foods in a playful environment

  • Expand their food inventory to include a greater variety of foods and brands

  • Reduce gagging, vomiting, coughing, and spitting out food during meals

  • Tolerate a variety of food textures and smells

  • Enjoy mealtime experiences
