🎉 Celebrating 2 Incredible Years with Ms. Kaela! 🎉

This month, we’re celebrating two years of Kaela bringing her outstanding expertise, leadership, and heart to Reach for the Top. With five years of outpatient pediatric experience before joining us, and a background in leading and managing multidisciplinary therapy teams, Kaela has elevated our PT program through hands-on mentorship, teamwork, and unwavering dedication to our families. She brings deep clinical knowledge in treating a wide range of pediatric diagnoses, from cerebral palsy to developmental delays, hypotonia, genetic conditions, and pediatric pelvic floor dysfunction. She also incorporates her skilled facility dog into sessions and has been a wonderful addition to our hippotherapy program.

Families feel the impact of her work every day. As one parent shared, “Amy and Kaela are so fantastic with my son… he just recently graduated from OT and is doing fantastic in PT. Without Reach I don’t know that he would be progressing as much as he has in the past 5 months… I will forever be grateful for their guidance.”

Kaela, thank you for two incredible years of compassion, clinical excellence, and leadership. We’re so grateful for the joy, energy, and skill you bring to our kids, families, and team. 💛

💛 This Is Where Healing & Growth Happens

At Reach, our mission is simple but powerful: create a space where every child feels seen, supported, and safe, and where families never have to walk the journey alone.

Healing happens here because our approach is intentional. It’s relationship-based, neuro-affirming, interdisciplinary, and grounded in the belief that every child deserves care that honors their whole brain, whole body, and whole story.

This year, you told us what our community needs, and we listened.
Your generosity fuels the launch of our new Mental Health programming, built on:
💛 Neurologic-informed care
💛 Trauma-informed care
💛 Return to play and return to school support
💛 Care that works at the intersection of mind, body, and regulation

Every breakthrough. Every smile. Every moment of regulation. Every step forward.
This is where healing happens, and this is why our mission matters.

🌟 Help Us Create More Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs)

Every time a child at Reach feels safe, supported, understood, and celebrated, a Positive Childhood Experience is created. And PCEs are powerful. They build resilience, strengthen the nervous system, and help the brain heal from stress, adversity, or trauma.

Our interdisciplinary, neuro-affirming, relationship-centered model makes this possible every single day. With OT, PT, Speech, and now Mental Health working together, we create the kind of moments that matter: connection, confidence, co-regulation, and joy.

When you support Reach, you help us create more of these life-changing experiences for children who are still waiting for care. And exciting news: Our Mental Health services are now in-network with Aetna, with Cigna, Anthem, and Medicaid coming soon! This means more families will access the care, connection, and healing they deserve.

💛 Help us build a world where healing, hope, and PCEs are possible for every child.

We’re excited to share that Reach is now IN-NETWORK with Aetna insurance for Mental Health 🙌

IMMEDIATE OPENINGS available!

While we continue working through insurance credentialing timelines (which are unfortunately outside of our control), we are currently private pay for some mental health services and will be transitioning to in-network with all current insurances as soon as possible.

💙 What this means for families right now:
• Aetna families: You can get started right away in-network!
• Other insurances: We’re offering low-cost private pay options to help families begin services without delay.
• Medicaid plans: Due to regulations, private pay is not permitted. We currently have a first-come, first-served waitlist for Wellsense, AmeriHealth, and NH Healthy Families for scholarships only.

⏰ Why call now?
This is a great opportunity to secure one of our limited after-school spots before they fill. Once those spots are gone, unfortunately waitlists begin.

📞 Call today to learn more, ask questions, or reserve your spot, we’d love to support your child and family!

🧠 Responding to the Crisis Our Kids Are Facing

NH children are waiting months, sometimes years, for support. And with rising mental health needs, ACEs, and the hidden impacts of concussion and brain injury, kids need more than one specialty… they need a team.

That’s why Reach is expanding into neurotrauma-informed mental health care, creating PCEs (Positive Childhood Experiences) that help rewire the brain toward healing and resilience.

With OT, PT, Speech, and Mental Health working together, we’re building a full interdisciplinary approach for kiddos recovering from concussion, brain injury, and early adversity in 2026!

Because every child deserves care that understands the brain, and opens the door to healing and growth.

A heartfelt thank you to Speedway Children's Charities - New Hampshire with the New Hampshire Motor Speedway for their incredible support of our trauma calls program! 🖤

Because of partners like you, we’re able to answer families in their hardest moments, when a child is carrying fear, grief, or experiences no child should ever endure. Your generosity helps us show up with safety, connection, and immediate care when it matters most.

This gift directly fuels Our Next Step: Expanding Care for a Growing Crisis, our end-of-year campaign focused on launching pediatric mental health services within our interdisciplinary model. For years, families have come to us in moments of heartbreak, stories shaped by hunger, bullying, homelessness, abuse, incarceration, and loss. We’re stepping up because our kids deserve better.

Thank you, NH Motor Speedway, for helping us build the world our children need — and for standing with us as we take this critical next step.

🌟 Student Spotlight: Danah!

We’re excited to celebrate Danah, our amazing Level II OT student supervised by Ms Laura! Danah is graduating this December from Springfield College’s 5.5-year accelerated program, earning her Bachelor’s in Health Science (Pre-OT) and Master’s in Occupational Therapy. Congratulations, Danah! 🎓✨

Her fieldwork has taken her from an adult inpatient rehabilitation hospital to Reach’s outpatient pediatric clinic, where she’s truly shined. She hopes to continue building experience in both areas and eventually bring her passions together in an inpatient pediatric setting.

During her time at Reach, Danah embraced play-based, meaningful interventions, supported regulation and engagement, and adapted in the moment with so much confidence. We’re grateful for the heart, growth, and joy she brought to our team!

Congratulations, Danah! The OT world is lucky to have you! 🎉

🎉 Happy 3-Year Anniversary, Ms. Candyce! 🎉

This month, we’re celebrating three amazing years of Ms. Candyce at Reach for the Top, and what an incredible impact she has made! ⭐

From the moment she joined us after earning her Occupational Therapy Assistant certification through an accelerated program at Manchester Community College, Candyce has brought heart, expertise, and pure joy to every session, family, and team member she works with.

Her passion shines in everything she does, from sensory-based, child-led, family-centered therapy to her dedication to pelvic floor therapy, trauma-informed care, and Hippotherapy. This year, Candyce stepped confidently into the role of Hippotherapy Lead, guiding our team through an amazing summer and fall season. Her calm presence, deep knowledge, and ability to help children feel safe, empowered, and understood have been transformative. 🐴

And families feel the difference, too. One parent shared:
“Emma loves her time with Ms. Candyce and has nothing but positive feedback about her time at OT. We have been utilizing Reach for the Top for several years following our daughter’s ADHD diagnosis and have been immensely grateful for the professionalism, expertise, care, and commitment for our daughter. Thank you for being there for Em and supporting our family, Ms. Candyce. We can definitely see the improvements in goals met, as well as better parenting techniques that serve our kids’ needs. So glad to have a place supporting us. Thank you OT!” 💛

Candyce, thank you for three years of growth, compassion, creativity, leadership, and laughter. Reach wouldn’t be the same without you, and we are so grateful for the way you support our team and families each and every day.

✨ BIG ANNOUNCEMENT - When we first created this video, Reach for the Top was on the brink of something extraordinary.

At the time, our story was already powerful, built on child-led therapy, authentic connection, and a community that believes in every child’s potential.

But what you’re about to see was filmed just before one of the most meaningful expansions in our history....the addition of our Mental Health Department!

Today, as we share this video with you, our hearts are full. This new department allows us to support children and families in deeper, more holistic, and more collaborative ways than ever before.

What started as a dream, creating a space where speech, OT, PT, parent support, and mental health could come together under one roof, has become our reality. Because of your trust, your belief in us, and your ongoing support, we’re able to walk alongside families through every layer of growth, connection, and healing.

💛 This video captures who we were on the cusp of becoming… and who we are proudly stepping into now.

We are grateful.
We are inspired.
And we are more dedicated than ever to building the world our children deserve.

Enjoy our newest video and take a look at the heart behind the work we do every day.
