About Us

Our Mission & Vision

Avery's Tree House is a therapeutic space for children with disabilities and their caregivers. Our vision is to offer various therapies, including speech, physical, occupational, aqua, hippo, and music therapy, alongside services like respite, habilitation, and behavioral therapy. Our compassionate staff will assess your needs and create a personalized plan, offering one-on-one and group therapy. We also provide educational classes on behaviors, nutrition, and alternative therapies.

Our Clinic

Our practice has recently undergone significant changes, which have extended to our therapy offerings, treatment facilities, and personnel. We are forward-thinking and actively expanding our therapy environments and services to provide comprehensive assessment, treatment, and ongoing care for a diverse range of patient needs.

Stay tuned for forthcoming updates and images.

Please note that Avery’s Tree House does not currently accept insurance. Our therapy services are billed per hour, with an additional 15 minutes allocated for patient or caregiver review since the last session. At the end of each session, we will discuss goals and recommendations for continued progress.

Meet Johni

I'm Johni Kreider, the founder of Avery’s Tree House LLC. For over two decades, my passion has revolved around caring for individuals with diverse needs.

I began my journey as a respite care and habilitation worker, focusing on children with autism, and later earned a Bachelor of Education in Special Education. I continued my education with a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy and am nationally certified.

I've worked in various therapy settings, from clinics to homes, with clients ranging from infants to high school students and adults. At Avery’s Tree House, we're committed to providing expert and compassionate care to support your journey to a brighter future.

Our Hippotherapy Partner

Selah Meadows is a portion of a family farm where Shannon Sholley and her family work together to help each other and those around us. Each horse has been used as an outreach to those around them, from teaching young children how to have their own horses when the time is right to healing the hearts of riders both near and far. They have had riders from different corners of the world and given nothing but love to those individuals blessed enough to be on their backs. As a full-time fourth-grade teacher, Shannon Sholley relies on the support of family to help with the operations of the farm. Her husband, three-year-old daughter, and extended family all work as a team to make these animals an instrument of hope to those around them.

Each horse can be rented and used along with Johni, a horse leader and sidewalker, to enhance each client's therapy. Each horse is guaranteed to enrich the lives of any rider that comes their way. Hippotherapy packages can be added to any existing therapy program.
