Healing Haven Expands Services With Second Clinic

HHInteriors

(Madison Heights, MI) Healing Haven, a center-based Applied Behavior Analysis therapy clinic, opened a second facility April 13, expanding services to include children up to 16 years old. The new clinic provides the opportunity to better serve older students with more age-appropriate therapies and pre-vocational activities.

Healing Haven owners are hosting an Open House Friday, May 11 from 6:30-8:30 PM. Interested families, community members, educators and medical professionals are invited to come tour the new and existing clinics and meet with the founder, owners and management team.

“Our newest clinic was developed to meet the needs of the children that have been receiving services with us for years,” says said Jamie McGillvary, MS, LLC, BCBA, Founder & Director of Healing Haven. “We want to continue to create innovative programs that can support a client’s needs for years to come.”

“Additionally, we saw a need to customize a center for children in the 8 to 16 year age range because they are often underserved. We are hopeful that our new clinic will attract new families that have not been able to have their child’s needs met elsewhere,” said McGillvary. “With the additional space we now have, we are also excited by the opportunity to foster growth in our programming for younger children.”

Located at 30755 Barrington St., Madison Heights, behind the original clinic, Healing Haven 2 is designed to serve children ages 8 to 16 years old. The original clinic at 30821 Barrington St. continues to serve younger students receiving therapy, focused on children ages 2 to 7 years old. Take a virtual tour of both facilities.
