Welcome to Kefi
Kefi is a private practice based in NYC, where we believe small successes lead to brighter futures – and that children hold the most incredible potential. At Kefi, we provide high-quality, personalized, evidence-based care to kids, through a flexible and friendly multi-disciplinary approach.
Every child and every family matters to Kefi, where we are committed to a creative and supportive team approach that is rooted in data and science. Fun and function are integral to our treatment plans, and we continually flex to what works best for your child.
Our Collaborative Approach
Collaboration at Kefi: A Foundational Pillar
At Kefi, collaboration is at the heart of our approach. Every child we work with benefits from the expertise of two highly credentialed specialists. This unique model ensures constant progress for all the children under our care.
How Our Collaborative Model Work
When you join the Kefi family, each child receives the attention of two specialists who collaborate closely to tailor the most effective treatment plans. On a weekly basis, your child will start to build rapport with their primary therapist while internally, the team is meeting to discuss the best strategies to support your child as they grow.
Consistent collaboration meetings allow us to monitor progress, address any issues, and adjust treatment plans as needed.
Our specialists cover a wide range of areas, including literacy, articulation, oral motor challenges, feeding, social cognition, language development, gestalt language processing, early intervention, and augmentative communication.
Specialists are assigned based on the initial information gathered about the child’s challenges, learning styles, interests, and needs.
Any additional reports or documents shared with us are meticulously reviewed to support the child’s development. Further, should you wish we speak to your child’s school team to learn more about their skills across settings, we would be happy to extend our collaboration to best support them
All our specialists engage in continuing education to grow their skills and apply the latest best practices to their clients, ensuring they progress toward their goals.
Benefits of Our Collaborative Model
Combining different expertise and viewpoints leads to more comprehensive and effective treatment plans. Collaboration results in tailored and well-rounded treatment strategies, ensuring no child stalls in their progress.
Team members provide valuable feedback and alternative strategies to enhance therapy, taking into account your child’s learning profile, motivators, and interests.
Joint problem-solving enables us to effectively and quickly address any challenges that may arise. This ensures that when your child is in a session, they are focused, engaged, and using strategies to support their learning.
Continuous learning among clinicians enhances their skills, directly benefiting your child.
Regular collaboration ensures thorough monitoring and timely adjustments to the therapy plan.
Our collaboration extends past the Kefi team. We consistently work with families to share their children’s progress and strategies to carry over into the home. With your permission, we are always available to consistently collaborate with your child’s school team to support skills development across settings.
At Kefi, our collaborative approach is designed to provide the best possible outcomes for your child’s growth and progress.
