"I can’t express enough positive things about the wonderful team at CST. The therapist who has worked with my son over the past four years has been a key player in his development and therapeutic journey. They have taught him valuable skills ranging from self-regulation to fine motor tasks and self-care. Additionally, the therapists are prompt, professional, and extremely communicative—always providing feedback and collaborating on solutions for any challenges I present. If I send an email on a Tuesday night, I can expect a response by Wednesday morning. Now that my son is in kindergarten, I attribute much of his independence and success in Chicago Occupational Therapy. Our family will always be grateful for the care and dedication shown throughout this process!"
