CENTER FOR PEDIATRIC THERAPIES |
|
Recently relocating to a new facility, Center for Pediatric Therapies of Forest, VA and Building Blocks of Central VA are pleased to announce their newest expansion, CPT FOREST-Applied Behavior Analysis Clinic. As the area’s leading pediatric rehabilitation provider, Center for Pediatric Therapies serves children and families in the cities and surrounding counties of Lynchburg, Danville, Martinsville, South Boston, and Roanoke, VA.
CPT specializes in providing occupational, physical, speech therapy, and ABA services for the pediatric population. Established in 2001, Co-founders Kristen Barker, OTR/L, and Tommy Mathena (pictured), identified a need for provision of pediatric therapy services in the Danville, VA region, as children and families often traveled over an hour for services otherwise not locally available.
In February 2022, CPT expanded to open a second location.
