This year, The Children’s Therapy Center, Inc. (TCTCI) turns 25!! That is a huge milestone. Where did the time go? The current co-owners, Kim Stocker, MA, CCC-SLP, and Dr. Susan A. Zapf, Ph.D., OTR/L, BCP, ATP, just celebrated their 5th anniversary of ownership of TCTCI. In honor of these major milestones, a blog on the history of our clinic was in order.
School is back in session! So much excitement; a new classroom, new supplies & backpack, new clothes, a whole new grade and new friends to make.
