They do work with adults, and they even work informally with me. I have some oral issues, and some processing verbal stuff. At least we know where my kid got his stuff!
Unfortunately, they're in Dubuque, IA. They have a great approach, they work as a team. The PT/OT/Speech people. Some sessions even overlap.
FInbar had baseball trouble, and they worked on it. I'm not sure if they're done yet.
I do hope you find some place to get help, because I see my son in a whole new light. He was anxious, and cried a lot, and couldn't face people, and had anger outbursts, was afraid of everything and everyone, and could only talk about tornadoes. He ate hardly anything, and noises bothered him way more than average. He still has problems, but his quality of life is so much better. People deserve that, I think. The therapies are so unobtrusive, which we LOVE. It's things he can do in his every day life. (For example, they have a giant rubber band around the front two legs of his chair. When he needs that 'sensory input' to regulate himself, he can quietly fiddle with the rubber band. Beats being restless and disrupting a class, you know?
