OUR MISSION, OUR TEAM AND OUR HEARTS

Since 2007, Essential Therapy Solutions has been on a mission to deliver expert, compassionate pediatric therapy services to families throughout Arizona. Founded by speech-language pathologist Amber Neubauer, we’ve built a company that prioritizes relationships—between therapists, families, and the children we serve.

​

We believe therapy works best when delivered with heart. That’s why we empower our therapists to lead with their clinical expertise, tailor care to each child’s unique needs, and find joy in everyday progress.

We provide in-home therapy throughout the Phoenix Metro area, including Phoenix, Peoria, Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler and Queen Creek—and operate welcoming clinics in Bullhead City, Kingman, and Lake Havasu.

MEET OUR LEADER

AMBER NEUBAUER, M.S., CCC-SLP AND ETS CEO
Founder & Speech-Language Pathologist

Amber founded Essential Therapy Solutions with a clear vision: to bring integrity, flexibility, and a people-first approach to pediatric therapy. After earning her Master’s in Clinical Speech Pathology from Northern Arizona University, she began her career in schools before discovering her passion for home health—a setting where she knew she was meant to be.

 

In 2007, Amber launched ETS, determined to create a company that was different from large corporate providers—anchored in compassion, therapist autonomy, and genuine respect for children and their families. By 2014, she shifted her full focus to leading ETS, guiding its growth across Arizona while staying connected to her clinical roots by stepping in to support when needed.

 

Today, Amber continues to lead with purpose, shaping a statewide team that shares her values and dedication to meaningful progress. Outside of work, she loves to travel, explore new places, and spend time with her niece and nephew whenever possible.
