Welcome to our blog! Are you wondering about how Shine started and our mission in the community? Here’s a bit about us!
Shine started out as one therapist with a dream! In 2005, owner Sarah Ziemba started providing in-home therapy to children under her name, after working for a local non-profit therapy center and as an early childhood speech-language pathologist at a local school. In 2011 Sarah began hiring therapists and operating under the name Shine Therapy Services. In 2015, SLP and feeding therapist Kristin Faulkner joined the company as a co-owner and we acquired a clinic space- and the ability to add more therapists! Our mission is two-fold: to provide high quality, evidence based services to children & families AND to provide a supportive, flexible workplace for our staff. In 2017, we served nearly 600 local children and families, and in 2018 moved to a larger, newly remodeled location to accommodate our growing business!
Shine now provides the following therapy services in our clinic as well as in homes, daycares and other community locations:
Speech Therapy
Feeding Therapy
Nutrition Services
Occupational Therapy
Physical Therapy
Developmental Therapy,
Spanish-English Interpretation/Translation.
We are excited about our future as a pediatric, multidisciplinary private practice in Peoria, IL!
