Coastal Pediatric Therapies

What Coastal Pediatric Therapies does

Coastal Pediatric Therapies is a privately held, therapist-owned pediatric therapy practice founded in 2018 in Savannah, Georgia by speech-language pathologists Rebecca "Becky" S. Brown and Anna F. Salter. The practice delivers five integrated therapy disciplines—speech, feeding, occupational, physical, and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)—to children from birth through age 21 in a single clinic at 413 West Montgomery Crossroads, supplemented by on-site contracts with local public and private schools.

Service delivery is built on a play-based, sensory-rich clinical model that pairs individualized care plans (long-term goals of ~1 year, short-term goals of ~6 months) with parent coaching and home programming. The clinical staff of approximately 21—6 SLPs, 3 PTs, 1 OT, 1 BCBA, 6 RBTs, plus 4 clinic coordinators—holds dense advanced certifications (PROMPT, Beckman Oral-Motor, Talk Tools, Nancy Kaufman, Speech-E-Z Apraxia, Pediatric Dysphagia, Lingraphica AAC, LAMP Words for Life, Autism Exercise Specialist, CPI), which the practice leverages as its primary credentialing differentiator. ABA services, including a comprehensive autism day program led by founding BCBA Sarah Weber, were added in 2023 as the most recent service-line extension.

Revenue is generated almost entirely through insurance billing. The practice is in-network with Georgia Medicaid, Amerigroup, CareSource, Peachstate, Cigna, Tricare, BCBS, UHC, UMR, and Aetna, and offers private-pay options plus superbills for out-of-network reimbursement. Go-to-market is referral-led, anchored in pediatrician relationships, with supporting channels including the practice website, Facebook and Instagram, school contracts, and community partnerships. The company is bootstrapped, with no disclosed institutional capital, parent company, M&A activity, or regulatory actions.
