Our story
TherapyWorks Cincinnati is a multidisciplinary pediatric therapy practice offering occupational, feeding and speech language therapies as well as educational services. Therapy and educational services are provided in our family-friendly setting.
TherapyWorks Cincinnati was founded in 2007 while Carrie Steenbergen was employed in public schools and started seeing children in the summer and after school. Shortly after, she began contracting with the state of Kentucky to be a First Steps early intervention SLP. Carrie saw a great need for additional speech therapy providers and started to bring other SLPs on board to help serve the Northern Kentucky area. In 2018, Carrie signed her first lease on a small, one room office in Blue Ash. Within nine months, she expanded to a larger space and then again several months later when the office next door became available. The expansion allowed for more than one therapist to be serving children at a time. In November of 2020, in the midst of a pandemic, Carrie took the plunge in renovating her dream space to allow multiple clinicians to be on site at one time. Carrie loves the new space and hopes you do too.
