We offer therapy & educational services wherever our clients need it most. Summer campers venture out on fun recreational outings. Vocational skill instruction takes place in schools at job fairs and on worksites. So while speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy and ABA therapy services are provided daily in-clinic, we also bring our services to clients.

  • Daycares
  • Anywhere we can help generalize therapy skills to everyday life

Therapy and Wellness Connection's Brecksville clinic is modern, spacious and fully-equipped. It’s a convenient, central location for many of our services, especially for kids who receive multiple therapies.

But life isn’t lived cocooned inside a therapy clinic. It plays out in home, at school and in the community. Just as it is with learning a new language: Full immersion is the best teacher. We offer therapy wherever it's most helpful.

Therapy That Best Translates to Real-Life Results

Results-driven therapy requires real-world application because THAT is where clients must generalize those skills in order to thrive.

Therapy and Wellness Connection is committed to treating “the whole person." We offer long-term services and supports that don’t cut off arbitrarily once a client reaches adulthood.

Each plan-of-care is comprehensive, individualized and regularly reevaluated. We aren’t just treating a diagnosis. We’re treating the whole person.

We offer free initial screenings and comprehensive evalutions like ADOS testing to determine whether services are necessary. From there, you may need a physician referral and insurance approval.

We accept most insurance plans. These include: Aetna, Anthem, Medical Mutual, Tricare, Optum, Summa, Medicaid, UH Community Plan, Mutual Health Services , Rehab Provider Network, Golden Rule, Care First Administrators, Care Source, UMR, Cigna, GEHA, Buckeye Health Plan and Children with Medical Handicaps Program. We also offer competitive self-pay options and accept The Autism Scholarship and the Jon Peterson Special Needs Scholarship.
