We have been with BB for 2.5 years and have been working with Stephanie the entire time, and we absolutely love her! She’s an incredible occupational therapist and has been a huge support for us. My kid loves going to sessions because Stephanie truly is the best!

We love Ms. Shauna (OT), Ms. Brittany M. (ST in Lehi), Ms. Brittany H. (ST in Saratoga Springs), Ms. Laura, and front desk Ms. Sydney and Ms. Kaitlyn. The breaking barriers team has been so wonderful helping my son with his speech, fine motor skill, and executive functioning delays. They’ve been really flexible helping us schedule when we need, building practice activities that my son is excited for, sending home homework for us (thank you Brittany M., we especially love that), and they have a spacious, clean waiting room where my other kids have been welcome with magnatiles and coloring pages to keep them content while waiting through sessions. We’re very grateful for the services and people at Breaking Barriers! We haven’t found anywhere else like it!

We have been using their speech and OT therapy for about a year, and I can’t stay enough good things! Miranda (speech) and Stephanie (OT) are both amazing. They honestly care about the improvement of my kiddo (a teenager). They are honest when honesty is needed, but always speak that honesty kindly and from a place of love. Stephanie has gone to bat for us when we needed it. Seriously, such a great group of therapists!

A Collaborative Approach to Therapy

Child playing during therapy

ICBT anchors our ABA program with a play-based, child-led, and neuro-affirming model. Parents are partners, not bystanders, so strategies can carry over at home, school, and in the community.

Speech therapy and occupational therapy fit into that same collaborative care model. Our clinicians work together so your child receives the right therapy at the right time, with shared goals across settings.

Some families come to us after a diagnosis, an injury, or a long period of uncertainty. Our role is to listen, build a plan, and support communication, independence, and meaningful progress.

We work best with families who value partnership, consistency, and joyful, intentional care.
