Why we started Therapy West 2
With over 40 years of combined clinical experience and a dedication to providing the best evidence based treatment, Dominique Kiefer and Beth White opened TW2 to rave reviews in the Winter Park/Maitland community. We are considered experts in Sensory Integration and Executive Function and strive to provide the latest treatment approaches while maintaining a child's main occupation, Play.
Our mission is to create a child-centered approach with strong family involvement in the treatment process to achieve the child’s greatest potential in a supportive learning environment.
