“ I LOVE seeing the joy in the eyes of each parent as they watch their child meet a goal.” - Erica
Erica received her Master of Science degree in Physical Therapy from Clarke College in 2001, joining the
Easter Seals family in June of the same year. She specializes in working with children and their families through the Early Intervention program and with school-aged children. Erica is part of the Warm Water
Pool program providing aquatic therapy, is a member of the Orthotics Team, and works with Payton, the
Easter Seals therapy dog, using animal assisted therapy to help children reach their milestones.
Erica says that she feels blessed to be part of the Easter Seals family, working with an amazing group of professionals who continue to help her grow as a therapist. The greatest gift, however, is being a part of the lives of each child she works with and watching them experience many of their “firsts” right in front of her eyes. Whether it’s sitting up, taking steps for the first time, or riding a bike, her heart is overcome with joy at each triumph. She continues to be amazed by the tenacity and dedication of the children and families when faced with the challenges in front of them.
Of being a therapist, Erica says, “As a therapist, my job is to help children learn new skills, but at the same time I am learning from each one of them every day and being inspired along the way.”

Physical Therapists at Easter Seals provide evaluations and ongoing therapy to enhance function and mobility for individuals with neurological, developmental, or orthopedic disabilities, and encourage independence at home, school, work, and in the community.
They also assist children in learning to use braces, crutches, walkers, wheelchairs, and artificial limbs. Therapy focuses on improving strength, range of motion, balance, coordination and mobility.
All therapy services are provided by registered and licensed therapists who specialize in pediatric services. Therapists are also credentialed and enrolled as providers of Early Intervention Services. Our physical therapy staff has over 120 years of combined experience.
Therapists work closely with the family, the child’s physician, and other health care practitioners setting treatment goals that are realistic and consistent with the family’s needs.
Therapy involves both direct treatment and home programming; families receive developmental and therapeutic information for activities they can implement between therapy sessions. Family involvement is a critical component of therapy.
Easter Seals physical therapists specialize in the treatment of Cerebral Palsy, Hypotonia,
Down Syndrome, Torticollis, Spina Bifida, Autism, and Gait Abnormality.

“I have always had a passion for children.” - Trista
Trista knew at a young age she wanted to work with children. During her high school years, she was the recipient of physical therapy services, and it was then she learned about occupational therapy and decided to become an occupational therapist.
She attended St. Ambrose University in Davenport, Iowa. Trista received a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology in 2010 and a Master’s degree in Occupational Therapy in 2011. While a student at St. Ambrose, she completed observational hours at Easter Seals, and joined the team upon graduation.
Trista provides evaluation and ongoing therapy services for children and their families, and is a member of the Easter Seals Autism Spectrum Disorders Diagnostic team. She continues to expand her skills and knowledge attending continuing education courses in aquatic therapy, therapeutic listening, autism, neurodevelopmental treatment, sensory processing, and Handwriting without Tears.
One parent said, “Our family has had a great experience with Easter Seals. Our son’s therapist, Trista, was excellent!”

Occupational Therapists at Easter Seals provide evaluations and ongoing therapy to assist in the improvement of fine motor, self-help, sensory processing, visual-motor, coordination, play and independent living skills. Occupational Therapists may also provide hand splinting or casting to assist children with functional hand use.
Children who demonstrate difficulty using their hands for daily activities such as eating, dressing or writing, who are challenged by processing sensory information, or who have difficulty with visual discrimination or motor planning may benefit from occupational therapy services.
During fiscal year 2013, therapists collaborated on a Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy research project with St. Ambrose University and attended a “Best Practices for Children with Cerebral Palsy” training at Cincinnati’s Children’s Hospital. Therapists also presented on Animal Assisted Therapy at the APTA Pediatric Section Conference.

Technology Practitioner through the Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology
Society of North America. Combined, our occupational therapy staff has over 80 years of experience.

“I appreciate the opportunity to enhance the life of a child and their family.” - Michelle
Michelle has been a Speech-Language Pathologist at Easter Seals since 2007. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Augustana College and a Master of Arts degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Northwestern
University. Her credentials include an Illinois licensure, Certificate of Clinical Competence from the American Speech-Language and Hearing Association, and she holds an Early Intervention credential. Prior to joining the Easter Seals team, Michelle worked in a school setting from 1998 - 2007.
Michelle is part of the Autism Spectrum Disorders Diagnostic Team at Easter Seals and has implemented individual and group treatment sessions for children with speech and language deficits secondary to Down syndrome, autism, nonverbal learning disabilities, central auditory processing disorders and learning disabilities.
She also provides speech-language therapy in the areas of fluency, language, articulation, phonology, oralmotor, voice and pragmatics.
Working as part of a multidisciplinary team is one of the things Michelle appreciates at Easter Seals. The daily collaboration among therapists working closely together enables her to treat the whole child, making milestones possible.
A parent offered, “Michelle is so great with Max! She is wonderful. I can’t say enough good things about her!” Page 10

PROMPT Therapy
Speech Therapists at Easter Seals provide evaluations and ongoing therapy to enhance receptive and expressive communication, oral-motor, and feeding abilities. Therapy stimulates oral-motor development, strengthens receptive and expressive language development, enhances auditory processing, and improves phonological difficulties.
Children who are not using two-word sentences by age two; those who are not speaking as much or as clearly as their same-age peers; and those who do not understand or recognize common objects or simple instructions may benefit from speech therapy. Children who have difficulty with oral-motor function such as lip closure, blowing, chewing, or tongue movement may also benefit.
Easter Seals Speech-Language Pathologists also have extensive, specialized training in feeding dysfunction. Therapists work closely with physicians, nutritionists, occupational and physical therapists and families to develop programming and help feeding become an enjoyable event.
During fiscal year 2013, Easter Seals hosted an intensive PROMPT training in partnership with the
Heart of Illinois Down Syndrome Association which focused on a multidimensional approach to speech production.
Easter Seals speech-language therapists specialize in the treatment of Down Syndrome, Apraxia,
Dysphagia, Autism, Phonological disorders, Clef Lip and Palate, Dysphagia, and Traumatic Brain
Injury. Easter Seals speech therapy staff has over 160 years of combined experience.

21 years, in both a public school setting and with Easter Seals. She is a credentialed Early Intervention provider, holds a Certificate of Clinical Competence, and is a member of the American Speech-Language-Hearing

She has a passion for helping families understand their child’s autism diagnosis. Rebecca is currently pursuing certification as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst.
“I honestly think The Autism Program is the best autism therapy program in central Illinois, maybe even the entire state. Everyone is so knowledgable, friendly, and awesome. Thanks for everything!” - An Easter Seals

The Center for Disease Control reports that autism affects 1 in 68 children, and 1 in 42 boys.
Autism has been called the epidemic of our time.
Autism is a complex developmental disability that typically appears during the first three years of life. It is a spectrum disorder which means it includes a large range of symptoms and behaviors.
Typically, children display repetitive behaviors and difficulties in verbal and non-verbal communication, social interaction and play activities.
Early identification is essential for future success. The characteristic behaviors of autism can be accurately identified at 24 months, but most children are not diagnosed until after age 4. Research indicates that early diagnosis is associated with dramatically better outcomes.
Easter Seals is one of very few organizations in Illinois that offers an ASD Diagnostic Team Clinic, which is led by a developmental pediatrician, for diagnosing children who may have an Autism
Spectrum Disorder. We perform more than 150 autism diagnostic evaluations each year. Our goal is to diagnose early, provide the most comprehensive assessment and treatment plan possible, and provide families with the support they need to best care for their child.
The Autism Program at Easter Seals offers a variety of service options from highly-intensive and comprehensive to issue-focused consultation for children, families and regional schools. The
Easter Seals Autism Helpline is available toll free at 855-511-3773.
