Developmental Therapist
Developmental Therapists work with children with developmental disabilities, such as autism, cerebral palsy, and Down syndrome, to help them reach their full potential. They provide a variety of services, including:
Education and training
Developmental Therapists typically have a bachelor's degree in special education, occupational therapy, physical therapy, or speech-language pathology. They may also have a master's degree in one of these fields.
In addition to their formal education, Developmental Therapists must complete a period of supervised clinical training. This training typically lasts for one to two years and provides them with the opportunity to gain experience working with children with developmental disabilities.
