Dedicated to Helping Every Child Thrive

At Adaptive Pediatric Thearpy, we’re passionate about empowering children and families through personalized, evidence-based therapy. From speech to lactation support and occupational therapy, our dedicated team works to support every child’s unique journey, helping them overcome challenges and reach their full potential.

Our Philosophy

We know that pediatric speech and occupational therapy has a bigger impact when parents and caregivers are involved. At Adaptive Pediatric Therapy, we’ll never ask you to wait outside during an appointment. You’ll be an active participant in your child’s therapy. Learn tools and strategies you can use at home, school and on-the-go to support your child’s developmental and sensory needs.

At APT, your child will be treated as the individual they are. Our personalized, goal-oriented approach to therapy is designed to address your child’s unique needs. We take a holistic approach to pediatric speech and occupational therapy to help your child do what they want and need to be able to do.

Meet Allison Caplin, MS OTR/L

Owner, Pediatric Occupational Therapist

Allie founded Adaptive Pediatric Therapy in early 2019 after working in Early Intervention and pediatric outpatient clinics. She has a passion for building relationships with children and their families and values a collaborative approach that helps kiddos progress towards their goals. She focuses on home and community-based OT services.

Allie is also the mom of a toddler son, whose own feeding issues inspired her work with tongue ties, lip ties and other infant feeding challenges. In her personal time, she enjoys spending time outdoors with her husband and son, hiking in the White Mountains and the NH Seacoast!
