About Restore

Not a hospital.
A place to exhale.

Restore is a specialized occupational therapy clinic built around one idea: that recovery goes better when you feel like a person, not a patient number. Our waiting room doesn't have overhead fluorescents and a TV playing the news. It has natural light, quiet, and a staff member who already knows your name when you walk in.

We work with children who need to learn how to hold a pencil, adults rebuilding their hands after surgery, stroke survivors reclaiming their morning routines, and aging parents who want to stay in their own homes. Every program is built around what matters most to you — not a generic protocol.

Pediatric Development

OTD, OTR/L — Pediatric Specialist

Meet your specialist

Dr. Elena Reyes

"The real breakthroughs happened at the kitchen table, not the exam room."

Dr. Reyes spent three years in pediatric neurology before she realized something: the children who made the most progress weren't the ones with the most clinical intervention — they were the ones whose therapists understood what mattered to them. Now she builds every program around a child's actual world: their favorite breakfast, the game they want to play at recess, the moment they want to feel capable.

Recent outcome

"A 7-year-old referred for sensory processing difficulties couldn't tolerate the texture of most foods or the feeling of seams in clothing. Within 12 sessions, he was eating lunch in the cafeteria with his classmates."

What the path forward looks like with Elena

Hand & Upper Extremity

OTR/L, CHT — Certified Hand Therapist

Meet your specialist

Marcus Chen

"Recovery isn't a straight line. We plan for the detours."

Marcus trained in orthopedic surgery recovery before becoming a Certified Hand Therapist — one of fewer than 6,000 in the country. He understands both the surgical reality and the practical gap between "medically healed" and "functionally recovered." He designs programs around the specific tasks his patients need to return to: a carpenter who needs grip strength back, a teacher who needs to write on a whiteboard again.

Recent outcome

"A 54-year-old contractor who had carpal tunnel release surgery was told he'd be back to work in 6 weeks. He came to us at week 8 still unable to grip a hammer. Six sessions later, he was back on site."

What the path forward looks like with Chen

Stroke & Neurological Recovery

OTD, OTR/L — Neuro Rehabilitation

Meet your specialist

Dr. Amara Osei

"The brain is still learning. We just have to give it the right classroom."

Dr. Osei completed her doctoral research on neuroplasticity-based upper limb recovery after stroke. But what she'll tell you changed her practice most was a patient named Robert — a retired jazz pianist who came to her 8 months post-stroke, left hand nearly non-functional. She spent 4 months rebuilding not just his hand strength, but his ability to play a full chord. He performed at his granddaughter's birthday party.

Recent outcome

"A 68-year-old stroke survivor who hadn't been able to button his own shirts for 11 months. After 16 sessions focused on task-oriented training and mirror therapy, he dressed himself completely independently."

What the path forward looks like with Amara

1

Week 1–2

Functional assessment + goal mapping

2

Week 3–6

Neuroplasticity exercises, constraint therapy

3

Week 7–12

ADL retraining — dressing, cooking, hygiene

Home Safety & Independence

OTR/L, CAPS — Aging in Place Specialist

Meet your specialist

Patricia Nguyen

"Staying home isn't just a preference. For most people, it's everything."

Patricia holds a Certified Aging in Place Specialist credential and has completed over 400 home assessments. She grew up watching her grandmother lose independence piece by piece because no one intervened early enough. Now she works with families to identify risks before a fall happens, adapt environments before a diagnosis forces a move, and restore the small daily freedoms — making your own coffee, getting to the bathroom at night — that tell a person they still have agency over their own life.

Recent outcome

"A family called after their 81-year-old mother had her second fall in three months. Patricia's home assessment identified 14 modifiable risk factors. The family avoided assisted living for an additional 3 years."

No surprises

Your first visit,
explained completely.

We've learned that the anxiety before the first appointment is often bigger than the appointment itself. So here's exactly what happens.

01

Before You Arrive

We send you a gentle intake form

Not a 12-page medical history. A short form asking about the three tasks that feel hardest right now, who referred you, and your preferred contact method. Takes about 5 minutes.

Good to know

If you have medical records or a referral letter, bring them — but they're not required to start.

02

When You Walk In

The waiting room is quiet by design

No loud TVs, no overwhelming check-in kiosks. A staff member will greet you by name. Water and tea are already out. You'll have 10 minutes to settle before your session begins.

Good to know

Parking is free. The entrance is step-free. Restrooms are 20 feet from the waiting area.

03

The Evaluation

We watch, ask, and listen — not test

Your therapist will ask you to demonstrate the tasks that have been difficult. They'll observe, take notes, and ask follow-up questions. This isn't pass/fail — it's a conversation about your daily life.

Good to know

Wear comfortable clothes you can move in. If it's a hand or upper extremity visit, a short-sleeve shirt helps.

04

Before You Leave

You'll know exactly what comes next

Your therapist will explain their findings in plain language, outline the treatment approach, and give you a realistic timeline. You'll leave with a written summary and your next appointment already scheduled.

Good to know

If you brought a family member or caregiver, they're welcome to join for this conversation.

Checklist

What to
bring with you

  • Insurance card (or we can verify coverage by phone before your visit)

  • Photo ID

  • Referral letter if your doctor provided one — but not required

  • List of current medications (a photo of the bottles works)

  • Comfortable clothes you can move in

where you are now.

Sandra Kowalski

Referred by pediatrician for sensory processing

"I sat in my car in the parking lot and cried after the first appointment. Not because it was hard — because for the first time, someone explained what was actually happening with my son in a way that made sense. We had a plan.

Before

Liam couldn't tolerate the cafeteria noise or the texture of most foods. He was eating alone every day.

After

After 14 sessions, he sits with his class at lunch and tries new foods once a week.

Duration

14 sessions over 4 months

No hidden surprises

Questions we hear
every day.

We've answered the ones that keep people from making the call. If yours isn't here, call us — we promise a real person will pick up.

We are in-network with

AetnaBlue Cross Blue ShieldCignaUnitedHealthcareMedicareMedicaid
Yes. We are in-network with most major insurance plans including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, and Medicare. We also accept Medicaid for pediatric services. Call us with your insurance card and we'll verify your benefits before your first visit — at no cost to you.
In most states, you can begin occupational therapy without a physician referral under direct access laws. We'll let you know during your intake call whether a referral is required for your specific insurance plan. If it is, we can often coordinate directly with your doctor's office to obtain one.
Initial evaluations are 60–90 minutes depending on your specialty area. Follow-up treatment sessions are typically 45–60 minutes. Your therapist will give you a clear schedule after your evaluation so you can plan around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities.
Our self-pay rate is $120–$160 per session depending on session length and specialty. We offer a sliding-scale fee structure for families experiencing financial hardship. We'd rather find a way to make care accessible than have cost be a barrier — please ask us about this on your intake call.
This depends on your goals, diagnosis, and how quickly you progress. Our estimator gives you a personalized range. Most patients see meaningful functional improvement within 6–8 sessions. We reassess every 4–6 sessions and only continue therapy as long as it's producing measurable progress toward your goals.
Absolutely — and for many patients, we encourage it. Family involvement is especially important in pediatric therapy and aging-in-place programs. Your therapist will let you know when having a family member present will be most beneficial, and we'll make sure they understand the home program too.
We ask for 24-hour notice for cancellations so we can offer the time to another patient. We understand that illness, caregiving emergencies, and life happen — we will never charge you a cancellation fee for a genuine emergency. If you need to reschedule, we'll find you a new appointment within the same week whenever possible.

You've read everything. You're ready.

The first step is just
a conversation.
