FAQs

  • We’re not a big clinic. We’re real people who care deeply about kids and families - and we’re building The Specialists to be the kind of therapy experience we’d want for our own families.

    Here’s what sets us apart:

    • Minimal waitlists – You shouldn’t have to wait months for help.

    • Flexible care – We meet kids where they feel safest.

    • Strengths-first therapy – We focus on what your child can do, not just what they can’t (no deficit mindset here).

    • Truly personalized plans – Every child is different, so our sessions are too.

    • Family-centered approach – You’re not just along for the ride - you’re our partner in this. We give you the tools and skills you need to continue to support your child even when we’re not there.

    • We’re people first – No no buzzwords, just passionate therapists who love what we do and lead with heart.

    We believe therapy should be fun for kids and feel like a breath of fresh air for families- and we’re honored to be part of your child’s journey.

  • We currently provide in-home therapy throughout Southeast Michigan and offer virtual sessions for families across Michigan. As our practice grows, we are transitioning toward primarily in-clinic services, with the goal of being fully in-clinic by June 2026. Virtual services will remain available for families located a significant distance from our clinic or for clients with medically complex needs. In-home services will be reserved for clients with medically complex needs when in-clinic services are not appropriate.
