What Sets Strive Therapy Apart?

Personalized, Consistent Care – You’ll work with the same Therapist consistently. No bouncing between unfamiliar staff or starting from scratch at each visit.

Not a Home Health Agency – Whether you’ve “graduated” from home health, didn’t qualify, or just want more time and attention than traditional systems offer, we’re here to support your next steps.

No “Homebound” Requirement – You don’t have to be stuck at home to benefit from our services. Whether you’re recovering, adapting, or planning ahead, we’re here to help.

Support That Fills the Gaps – We’re a perfect fit for people who have finished home health services or want to stay active but aren’t quite ready—or able—to return to a clinic or gym setting.

Mobile, Flexible, and On Your Schedule – We come to you—in your home, your community, or wherever you need us. No waiting rooms. No wasted time.

Occupational therapy can benefit individuals recovering from an injury, managing a chronic condition, or experiencing difficulties with daily activities. If you’re unsure whether occupational therapy is right for you, contact us for a consultation.

What can I expect during my first visit?

During your first visit, our therapist will conduct a comprehensive assessment to understand your needs and goals. This includes discussing your medical history, current challenges, and lifestyle. Based on this assessment, we will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Do I need a referral from my doctor?

The number of sessions needed varies from person to person and depends on several factors, including the nature and severity of your condition, your overall health, and your treatment goals. During your initial consultation, our therapist will assess your condition and provide you with a personalized treatment plan. While some individuals experience relief after just a few sessions, others may require ongoing care for more chronic issues. Our goal is to provide you with the most efficient and effective care to help you achieve long-lasting results. Your progress will be continually monitored and adjusted as needed throughout your treatment plan.
