“You can not educate a child who is not healthy, and you can not keep a child healthy who is not educated.”

-Dr. Jocelyn Elder

Our Mission

TheraYouth’s mission is to help children (0-18 years) from low income families overcome physical and developmental barriers by providing outpatient therapy that sets them up for a healthier future. We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to pediatric wellness and addressing the healthcare accessibility gap that exists in high-density neighborhoods.

TheraYouth is a non-profit (with 501 C-3 status) pediatric therapy center for  families throughout New Jersey, including Newark, Edison, Paterson, and Union County. We provide specialized physical therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, and counseling to children of all ages, from birth to 21 years old. 

We will specialize in treating children with injuries from sports, orthopedic, neuromuscular injuries, scoliosis, postural impairment, muscle weakness, developmental delay, speech delay, speech articulation disorders, pronunciation problems, movement disorders, neurological disorders, sensory disorders, feeding difficulties, genetic diagnoses and much more.

Our Story and Goals

Our founder, Dr. Irina Marcoff, DPT, has spent decades treating children with various impairments and disabilities for both public schools systems and in private practice. Many of the low-income neighborhoods where she has worked do not have sufficient occupational, physical, and speech therapy clinics.

Children with delays, disabilities, and injuries risk developing chronic ailments and face societal and emotional challenges when untreated. School systems typically only help students who have more severe challenges, often excluding children with mild to moderate impairments. Retail therapy is inaccessible for many families due to high costs.

Dr. Marcoff created TheraYouth to provide children of all ages and challenges with comprehensive, personalized, expert care in communities where vital services are hard to find. TheraYouth strives to give all children, from every income level, the opportunity for a healthier and stronger future

Physical Therapy

Our physical therapists evaluate and create personalized care plans for every child to strengthen and maximize function. Treatment plans are developed through the assessment of postural control, strength, endurance, safety during ambulation, developmental milestones, and functional mobility.

Occupational Therapy

Our occupational therapists evaluate and create individualized care plans for every child. Treatment plans are based on standardized evaluations that measure the child’s performance in a variety of environments (home, school, community) in order to enhance independence across settings.

Speech Therapy

Our speech therapists evaluate and tailor treatment to each child’s specific communication needs, oral motor challenges and executive function concerns. Treatment can focus on development of expressive or receptive language, strengthening oral motor musculature needed for feeding and swallowing, and helping with articulation.
