Who we are

Joy Opens Doors provides pediatric speech, occupational, and feeding therapy. Our philosophy is summed up in our name: we believe that by tapping into a child’s joy, we can open doors!

What we do

We believe in using cutting edge approaches combining naturalistic play with behavioral techniques. This means that we use meaningful play and social connection in a child’s natural environment.  Including your child’s daily routines means faster learning and more comprehensive gains.

Where we work

Joy Opens Doors serves children and their families throughout the San Francisco Bay area.

Why we do it

We believe the very best care should be available to everyone. We are in-network with Kaiser Permanente of Northern California, and we are happy to work with you as an out-of-network provider for other insurance providers.

How we work

Therapy is individualized to meet your child’s needs and your family’s needs. Depending on your child, therapy may include:

• DIR Floortime
• Hanen It Takes Two To Talk
• Hanen More Than Words
• Hanen Talkability
• Pivotal Response Treatment
• Picture Exchange Communication System
• Prompts for Restructuring Oral Muscular Phonetic Targets
• SOS Feeding Therapy

Our response to COVID-19

We are responding to COVID-19 by temporarily suspending our in-home speech and occupational therapy visits. This is important as it supports social distancing and helps us keep you safe. We are using teletherapy to provide all therapy services during this time.

Thank you for your partnership as we work to provide high quality services in a time of uncertainty.
