At Prairie Grit Therapy, families find more than therapy—they find a place built around kids’ growth. Our physical, occupational, and speech therapists use play, movement, and everyday activities to help children build confidence and independence.

From handwriting and feeding to balance, speech, and social interaction, our team works alongside families to create lasting progress.

🧡 Because every child deserves the chance to reach their full potential.

It’s Saturday, but we don’t mind. We still need to celebrate our anniversary of hiring Miss Debbie. For years she’s the first face you see when you come to your appointment.

Her role has shifted through the years but not her presence. She’s still at the front office waiting for you and your little ones to hustle in to check in. She’s there to help you navigate the (we’ll politely call it a “journey”) with insurance. She’s always there as a guidance counselor to our staff and so many more roles.

Join us in wishing Miss Debbie a Happy Workiversary. Thanks for being part of the team, Debbie.

We’ll see you in a few years, kid 😉

Today we celebrate Miss Kara—not just for the year she’s been with us, but for the countless moments she’s poured her heart into helping our kids grow, learn, and shine.

From her patented, to creative treatment ideas, to managing the monster of the schedule we have, her effort is obvious to us all.

Her patience, kindness, and steady encouragement make a difference that’s felt far beyond the clinic walls. Kara, you are such an important part of our Prairie Grit family, and we are so grateful for the love and skill you bring to every child you work with.

Here’s to the lives you’ve touched and the many more yet to come. Happy Workiversary.
