Our Story

Grow and Nurture to Help Achieve Dreams and Build a Self-Sustainable Life

My Empower Therapy was founded with a bold vision—to create a nurturing, inclusive space for children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and those experiencing developmental delays or attention deficit disorder (ADD/ADHD). What started as a dream is now a leading pediatric therapy clinic powered by a multidisciplinary team specializing in:

  • Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)

  • Speech therapy for autism

  • Occupational therapy

  • Feeding therapy for ADHD

  • Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy (MeRT)

We believe that every child deserves the right tools, encouragement, and environment to reach their fullest potential. Our individualized therapy plans are thoughtfully designed to match each child’s unique strengths, sensory needs, and developmental goals.

We believe that every child has the potential to grow and shine when given the right tools, encouragement, and personalized care. And that’s exactly what we deliver—highly individualized therapy programs tailored to each child’s unique strengths, needs, and goals.

What Parent Say About Us.

★★★★★ 5/5
(120+ Review) From Google
We have been working with Farah and team for almost a year now. They are full of warmth and kindness. My son looks forward to attending his sessions and that speaks volumes to us. Prior to joining this team, we saw no progress and felt defeated as another facility was not so welcoming, caring or understanding of our child's needs.
AmanClient
This place changed my daughter's life.Her behaviour changed alot in a positive way after getting therapies from them. Director is very kind and knowledgeable. I am short of words to express my happiness. It's the best clinic for behaviour therapies and speech therapy.
Kanchan SethClient
My Empower Therapy has been doing an exceptional job working with our son. He has made such progress since starting speech therapy work with the excellent team. They are patient, fun, gentile, and have great teaching techniques. We are so grateful for the work they are doing.
Steve BreenClient
If your child had a speech or language delay, My Empower is the best clinic to consider. They are able to pin point the exact reason the child is having difficulty and will provide support accordingly. Wonderful Farah is just too knowledgeable and paired with Dr. Amro and Sharon I have seen too much improvement in Just two and half months.
Shu Chun ChuangClient
This clinic has been instrumental in helping our family. We regret wasting 1.5 years at another place nearby, where my child was just a number and babysat. The entire team and especially Farah have been so kind, supportive, knowledgeable and made huge impact in our child’s skills and development. I can not appreciate, recommend and thank this clinic enough
