ABOUT

OUR GOALS, VALUES AND BELIEFS
OUR STORY
Essential Therapy Solutions was founded by Therapists in 2007 to address the overwhelming need for family services in Arizona. We secured contracts with schools and became a Qualified Vendor with the Arizona Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD). Additionally, we partnered with agencies holding Arizona Early Intervention Program (AzEIP) contracts to provide services for children from birth to 3 years old.
In 2013, ETS became an Associate member of Arizona Cooperative Therapies (ACT), a cooperative of small agencies serving children up to 3 years old and their families. ETS was granted full Member status within ACT in May 2015. We continue to network and explore opportunities for growth within our industry.
​Essential Therapy Solutions offers a variety of therapies to enhance development and promote well being in both children and adults. ​At ETS, we use a multidisciplinary approach to therapy, with teams consisting of clients, families, schools, and therapists. Together, we develop comprehensive service delivery plans with individual goals to help each client reach their full potential.
We have State contracts with AzEIP and DDD. While AzEIP is a home-based program for children from birth to 3 years old, most DDD services are also home-based. ETS delivers AzEIP services in LaPaz and Mohave counties, and in the Phoenix area through our membership with Arizona Cooperative Therapies. We do have 3 clinics (Lake Havasu City, Kingman, and Bullhead City) that some families choose to use for DDD services. Depending on family preference, we can provide services either at home or in a clinic, as we are in-network with most major insurance companies. Currently, we are not in-network with AHCCCS plans.
