Why Families Choose Radiance Pediatric Therapy
We believe therapy should be as unique as your child, combining expert skill with a heart for family partnership.
Our Story
Radiance Pediatric Therapy was founded in 2025 in Bentonville, Arkansas, by owners Jennifer Kloster, Occupational Therapist, and her husband, Jason Kloster. After years of seeing families struggle with therapy that felt disconnected from families’ needs, Jennifer created a warm, playful space where occupational therapy feels like joy, and where each child’s unique strengths are truly celebrated.
The name “Radiance” comes from the inner light that shines and is evident on a child’s face when they learn through play and exploration. Whether in our welcoming clinic space or directly in local preschools, we meet children exactly where they live, learn, and play. Our approach is rooted in advanced, evidence-based practices including sensory integration, reflex integration, and the Developmental, Individual-differences, Relationship-based (DIR) model.
At Radiance, therapy is about building confidence, fostering independence, and supporting all children in a fully affirming way. We partner closely with parents and caregivers, offering practical strategies that fit naturally into daily routines at home, school, and in the community.
We’re here because we love kids and believe every child deserves to feel capable, connected, and radiant!
Frequently Asked Questions
What ages do you serve?
We currently serve children from 8 months to 18 years old.
What kinds of challenges or diagnoses do you work with?
We support children with fine motor and visual‑motor delays, sensory processing and emotional regulation challenges, body and spatial awareness difficulties, differences in strength, endurance, and coordination, attention and focus difficulties, and functional
independence skills. We also work with children with autism, ADHD, developmental delays, and other neurodevelopmental differences.
Do parents stay in the session or wait in the waiting room?
Most families choose to wait in the lobby or drop off their child, but we welcome and value parent involvement if you prefer to stay.
How often will my child need therapy, and for how long?
Most children attend once or twice per week, but frequency is based on your child’s needs, goals, and insurance coverage. The overall length of therapy varies by child.
Do I need a referral from my child’s pediatrician?
Yes. Our clinic will work with your child’s pediatrician to obtain the referral needed to complete an evaluation and begin treatment.
Do you accept my insurance, and what are your private‑pay rates?
We are in‑network with Arkansas Medicaid and ARKids, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Arkansas Total Care, Ambetter, CareSource, Empower Healthcare Solutions, QualChoice, Cigna, Summit, TriCare, UnitedHealthcare, and Optum, and we also accept private pay. For the most accurate information about coverage and current private‑pay rates, please contact us directly at info@radiancepediatrictherapy.com.
How long is the evaluation, and what happens afterward?
An occupational therapy evaluation typically lasts about 60 minutes. After the evaluation, we review the findings with you, create an individualized treatment plan with recommended goals and session frequency, and discuss next steps together.
How soon will we see progress?
Progress is different for every child and depends on their needs, goals, and how often we meet. Some families notice small changes within a few weeks, while other goals take longer; we check in regularly so you know what we are seeing and how to support progress at home.
How do you involve parents and caregivers in therapy?
We view parents and caregivers as essential partners. We listen to your goals, explain what we are working on in plain language, and provide simple, realistic strategies you can use during daily routines at home, in preschool, and in the community.
Do you offer services in schools, preschools, or the community?
We currently provide services in our clinic and in local preschools. When appropriate, we also collaborate with school staff and other providers to support your child’s success across settings.
What is your cancellation or no‑show policy?
We ask for at least 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment so we can offer the time to another family. Late cancellations and no‑shows may be subject to a fee or could affect your child’s regular appointment time.
How do you communicate with teachers or other providers?
With your written permission, we can communicate and collaborate with your child’s teachers, pediatrician, and other providers. This may include sharing evaluation summaries, treatment goals, and practical strategies to support your child across settings.
