Care that fits, in Woodridge

Everything your child needs,
under one roof.

At Gracent Pediatric Therapy in Woodridge, we believe every child deserves therapy that feels personal, purposeful, and full of possibility. We meet each child where they are, then build the path forward.

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA Therapy for Autism)

Great ABA is playful, connected, and shaped by your child's voice, and that's the standard we're known for. Our clinicians collaborate across disciplines, tailor every goal to your child's strengths, and create sessions that feel engaging, meaningful, and genuinely supportive. It's an approach that helps children connect, participate, and feel truly understood. We have immediate availability for ABA therapy at our Woodridge center.

School Readiness

Our School Readiness program bridges the gap between therapy and school. Children learn in a small-classroom environment while receiving individualized, clinically-guided support, so skills generalize where they matter most. We know parents want more than milestones — they want progress that shows up in real life. Our half-day School Readiness program helps children build the skills needed for classroom participation.

Speech & Feeding Therapy

Our speech-language pathologists support children at every stage of communication, from first words to clearer speech, stronger understanding, and more confident expression.

We focus on skills that show up in real life — asking for help, joining conversations, expressing feelings, and being understood by peers and adults.

Therapy is playful, purposeful, and personalized, helping children feel heard and understood wherever they go.

Occupational Therapy

From morning routines to playground adventures, our OTs help children build comfort, confidence, and coordination — so daily life feels easier for everyone.

Occupational therapy supports skills like dressing, eating, handwriting, emotional regulation, and sensory processing. We help children feel more comfortable in their bodies, more regulated in their emotions, and more confident navigating everyday tasks at home, school, and play.

Mental Health Services

Our therapists help kids understand emotions, build coping skills, and feel more confident navigating friendships, school, and daily life.

Through age-appropriate, evidence-informed therapy, children learn how to name feelings, manage anxiety, handle frustration, and build emotional resilience.

We support the whole child, helping them feel calmer, more confident, and more capable in the moments that matter most.

Speech · SLP

Getting here

Getting to our Woodridge, IL center

Gracent Pediatric Therapy — Woodridge, IL

3351 Hobson Road, Suite B
Woodridge, IL 60517

Our Woodridge center is on Hobson Road, easy to reach for families across town and from neighboring Downers Grove, Lisle, Bolingbrook, and Darien — just off I-355. Getting your child to consistent, weekly therapy shouldn't mean a long drive, and here it doesn't.

We work hand-in-hand with the schools your kids actually attend. That means coordinating with Woodridge School District 68 on IEP goals, evaluations, and the language that shows up in your child's school day. You'll see support that lines up with what their teachers and therapists are already doing, not generic recommendations.

And because Woodridge is built for families — Cypress Cove Family Aquatic Park, the Woodridge Park District trails, and the nearby forest preserves — we focus on the real-world skills that let your child take part: regulating in a busy locker room, joining a team, ordering for themselves on a Saturday outing. Therapy that travels off the mat and into their actual life here.

Hours:
Monday to Friday: 8:00 am to 6:00 pm
Saturday and Sunday: Closed

Immediate availability for ABA therapy in Woodridge — no waitlist.

ABA therapy in Woodridge, IL — shaped by your child, never a template.

Naperville FAQ

Questions Woodridge families ask

Does Gracent offer ABA therapy in Woodridge?

Yes. Our Woodridge center at 3351 Hobson Road, Suite B provides ABA therapy for autism alongside speech therapy, occupational therapy, and our school-readiness prep program — one interdisciplinary team under one roof. For autism testing, families visit our nearby Naperville center. (Formerly North Shore Pediatric Therapy.)

Do you offer autism testing in Woodridge?

We provide early autism evaluations for children about 18 months to 4 years through our nearby Naperville, Deerfield, and Arlington Heights centers, with immediate availability — so families don't wait months for answers. If testing leads to a diagnosis, therapy can begin right here in Woodridge, without starting over somewhere new.

What ages do you work with?

We support children from as young as 18 months through the school years. Our early autism testing focuses on 18 months to 4 years, where early support makes the biggest difference — but we also serve older children and teens.

What insurance do you accept?

We accept most major insurance plans and will run a benefits check with you before your child starts, so you have a clear picture of coverage and any out-of-pocket costs before day one.

Where is the Woodridge center, and what are your hours?

We're at 3351 Hobson Road, Suite B, Woodridge, IL 60517, serving families across Woodridge, Downers Grove, Lisle, Bolingbrook, and Darien. Hours are Monday to Friday 8am to 6pm. Call 630-381-7755 to get started.

What makes Gracent different?

One team, one plan. Your child's ABA, speech, occupational-therapy, mental-health, and neuropsychology providers work together and share a single plan — so you're not left coordinating disconnected providers. Every plan is built around your child's individual needs, never cookie-cutter hours, and our school-readiness program bridges therapy and the classroom.

How much does ABA therapy cost, and is it covered by insurance in Illinois?

For most families, ABA therapy is covered by insurance. We accept most major Illinois plans and verify your benefits before your child starts — so you'll know your coverage, co-pays, and any out-of-pocket costs up front, with no surprises.

What does ABA therapy look like at your Woodridge center?

It looks like play. Our BCBAs follow your child's lead, building communication, social, and daily-living skills through the games and routines they already love, in warm one-on-one sessions — connected across their whole team and shaped by your child, never a set number of hours to fill.

Is ABA therapy right for toddlers?

Yes — early ABA is one of the things we do best. We welcome children as young as 18 months, and starting early helps skills carry into preschool, kindergarten, and everyday family life. Every plan is paced for a young child.

How soon can my child start ABA therapy in Woodridge?

We currently have immediate availability for ABA at our Woodridge center — no months-long waitlist. After one call, we'll walk you through a benefits check and an assessment and get your child started quickly.
