- General Info
- Welch & McLoy Therapy Services provides occupational, physical and speech-language therapy services to infants, toddlers and children ages birth through 21. We also provide therapy services to adults with developmental delays. Treatment approaches emphasize normalization of gross motor, fine motor, perceptual, speech, language, and cognitive skills. Interventions are individually tailored to each child's development within an interdisciplinary team approach. Parental involvement is encouraged throughout the therapeutic process and seen as an important part of the program. Our clinic has a strong belief in Sensory Integration theory. This theory postulates that a child's ability to integrate, process and respond to information gathered through the senses of vision, hearing, taste, touch, smell, gravity and body position in space affects learning. Problems with sensory integration would lead to problems with learning. Intervention based on Sensory Integration theory would involve the whole child and how he/she interacts with the world. Using this theory, Welch & McLoy Therapy Services, PA utilizes a strong play-based approach. We analyze the child's play skills and responses during each treatment session. Activities are adapted to the child to allow for a "just right" challenge. When appropriately challenged, a child can complete tasks successfully. Success builds confidence and self-esteem that allows for carry-over of learned skills to other situations.

McLoy, OTR/L for the purpose of providing occupational therapy services to children and developmentally delayed adults in the New Port Richey area. The company has grown steadily since its inception by providing high quality of care and practice in a family run practice. In 1993 Margaret was joined in this pediatric practice by Richard J. McLoy, M.S., CCC-SLP/L to provide speech-language services and in 1994 by Christine Cruz-Cooper, RPT/L to provide physical therapy services. The three partners have worked together to provide multi-disciplinary, child centered therapy. As well as the initial partners, professional staff has been augmented by the addition of professional and paraprofessional staff in the areas of occupational therapy, physical therapy and speech-language pathology. Our office staff is professional and dedicated to providing a high level of support services. They work hard to facilitate services to our clients

I called and spoke with Dr. Mcloy personally for 45 minutes while he helped me answer questions about my son. Normally he doesn't answer the phone, but he did this time and was so willing to help me out and give me very sound advice. I look forward to working with him more - he knows what he is talking about!
