Home-Based Pediatric Speech Therapist

St. Petersburg, FL

About Our Company

At Unlimited Pediatric Therapy, we stand out because of our commitment to quality and excellence, a vision that began with our founder, Rachael Somerman. As a child development therapist, Rachael noticed a significant lack of quality regulation for in-home therapists and training programs for developmental therapists. Driven by a desire for higher standards, she created a comprehensive training program in 2019, which laid the foundation for UPT. This focus on quality support and rigorous training is what sets us apart, ensuring that every child and family receives the best possible care and guidance.
