✿ NEURO-AFFIRMING 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 redefining 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.

Dr. Courtney McIntyre, OTD, OTR/L, is GroWild’s founder and an AuDHD pediatric OT with 20+ years of experience supporting neurodiverse indivuals and their families.
Dr. Courtney holds advanced certifications in Ayres Sensory Integration, hippotherapy, and sensory based feeding.
She offers an autonomy-based, identity-affirming approach that helps individuals and families grow authentically.
When she’s not supporting families, you can find her riding horses and exploring the PNW with her children and their family dog.

Jillian Wing, MS, CCC-SLP, is a Speech-Language Pathologist specializing in autism, neurodivergent communication, she brings experience from medical, private practice, and autism diagnostic settings to a whole-person, family-centered approach.
She believes families shouldn’t have to wait for a child to “qualify” before their concerns are taken seriously, and she works with them to set goals that matter in everyday life.

Two Spaces.
One Mission.
Therapy at GroWild: Two Spaces, One Mission
Our therapy happens in two settings. At GroWild in Camas, our sensory motor gym is built for big movement, with a custom suspension system, climbing, and sensory-rich play. At the Risewell Foundation’s 50-acre farm in Hockinson, kids connect with horses and nature through hippotherapy and outdoor, farm-based therapy. Indoors or out, the mission is the same: child-led, autonomy-based, identity-affirming care that helps kids and families grow authentically.
Therapy at GroWild
Pediatric occupational and speech therapy with licensed, highly specialized clinicians — in a gym built for movement. Our play-based approach is grounded in Ayres Sensory Integration® (ASI) and growild is built to ASI fidelity, helping kids build regulation, motor skills, feeding, and communication through real relationship, play, and child led interactions.
Therapy at Farm
The Farm at Risewell Set on a private 50-acre equestrian facility in Hockinson, our farm brings therapy outdoors. Kids work with our eight therapy horses in the indoor arena and the 10-stall barn, explore private trails, ride bikes on the recreational track, and discover nature at the seasonal pond. Every part of the farm invites movement, connection, and curiosity, so kids can build skills through real-world experiences in an open, natural setting
— 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.
