✿ PEDIATRIC THERAPY AT GROWILD
A collective of clinicians
under one shared philosophy.
GroWild is more than a space — it's the home base for independent therapists who share a commitment to Ayres Sensory Integration®, neurodiversity-affirming care, and relationship-driven therapy. You book with the clinician who's right for your family. We work as a team to make sure the care holds together.
— THE SHARED BRIEF
Different clinicians.

Ayres Sensory Integration®
Gold-standard, evidence-based framework at the center of our treatment

— HOW WE WORK TOGETHER
A team approach, when it serves your child.
1
You inquire
Email the clinician you're drawn to, or reach out to GroWild and we'll help you find the right fit.
When a child works with more than one of us, we collaborate — with your permission and at your pace. Most of the time, that means quiet alignment behind the scenes so your sessions stay coherent.
2
A conversation
The clinician you've chosen explores what your family needs and explains how their work could help.
3
Care begins
You book directly with your clinician's practice. We collaborate as needed to keep your child's care aligned

— WHERE WE GROW
Two spaces. Two ways your child can thrive
✿ INDOOR · CAMAS, WA
The Boutique Playroom
A 1,500 sq ft sensory-motor gym built to ASI® fidelity. Specialty lighting, custom woodwork, and a thoughtfully designed environment for indoor sensory integration sessions.
ASI® · Sensory-motor · Feeding · Co-treatment
Therapy at GroWild happens across two intentional environments — both designed to give children what they need to grow.
✿ OUTDOOR · HOCKINSON, WA
The 50-Acre Farm
Our private equine-assisted therapy site, set on 50 acres in Hockinson. Hippotherapy, outdoor sensory regulation, and the kind of work that only happens when therapy moves outside.
Hippotherapy · Equine-assisted · Outdoor sessions
Farm address shared with clients after booking. Equine-assisted sessions are available to existing clients with a current evaluation — confirm fit during your initial conversation.
— OUR APPROACH
A sociological approach to care —
not a medical one.
Most pediatric therapy is built on the medical model: identify the deficit, write the goal, fix what's broken. That model can help — but it positions your child as the problem.
GroWild is built on a sociological model. We don't see your child as broken. We see a child whose nervous system, communication style, and way of being deserve environments, relationships, and skills that fit who they are.
So we don't just treat the child — we work with families, schools, and the wider community to build a world that actually fits.
That's why our work extends beyond individual sessions. Therapy that ends at the clinic door has limited reach. Therapy that reaches the whole ecosystem is what changes lives.
— WHAT WE OFFER
Care that reaches beyond the clinic door.
— DIRECT CARE
Individual Therapy
One-on-one sessions tailored to your child's nervous system, communication style, and goals.
Co-Treatment Groups
Small group sessions led by our OT and SLP — sensory, social, and communication goals together.
— FAMILY SUPPORT
Whole-Family Support
We work with the whole family — child, caregivers, siblings — because regulation and growth happen in relationship.
— BEYOND THE CLINIC
Community Education
Workshops and talks bringing sensory, neuroaffirming knowledge into our community.
Continuing Education
Trainings & CEUs for OTs, SLPs, educators, and fellow clinicians
Community Groups
Larger groups building authentic confidence, unmasking safely, and finding belonging on their own terms.
Parent Coaching
Private sessions for caregivers — translating clinical insights into real-life strategies and building confidence in your own knowing.
School Consulting
Partnering with schools on sensory environments, IEPs, and staff education.
Educational Assessments
Independent evaluations to support IEPs, school placement, and family advocacy.
— WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE IN PRACTICE
Two models. Two very different experiences.
— THE MEDICAL MODEL
Child is the patient.
Identifies deficits.
Goal: normalize behavior.
Therapy ends at the clinic.
Tracks compliance.
Outcomes: skills acquired.
— THE SOCIOLOGICAL MODEL
Child is part of a system.
Identifies misalignments.
Goal: build authentic self.
Therapy extends to the community.
Tracks regulation, autonomy, joy.
Outcomes: belonging, confidence, agency.
