About Us

Real Therapy Happens in the Gray Areas

We started Therapy Insights after staring down a faded dysphagia handout and a therapy binder full of crossword puzzles. Like so many therapists, we wanted tools that matched the real lives of the people we work with that were functional, relevant, and rooted in evidence, not busywork.

So we began designing our own. When we shared them with others, the response was immediate: “This is exactly what I needed.” And it hasn’t stopped since.

“The therapy activities are a breath of fresh air. I was so tired of using the same materials over and over. The activities are relevant and applicable to real life.”
—Tracey Gehrke

Built on Values, Not Perfection

Our work is grounded in the belief that therapy isn’t about doing it “right.” It’s about showing up fully, thinking critically, and connecting human-to-human. These are the values that guide us:

• Nuance. Therapy rarely follows a script. We design tools that make space for complexity and clinical reasoning.

• Humanity. We believe care should be collaborative, not top-down. Our resources support autonomy, choice, and the goals that matter to each individual.

• Imperfectionism. There’s no perfect therapist. And there’s no perfect material. Our resources are built for real life, not ideal conditions.

“These are the materials I would make if I had the time and creativity, but I don’t. Thankfully, Megan has started this service so I don’t need to worry about anything but waiting for new resources every month.”
—Jessica Schell

Why Therapists Subscribe

Every resource we create is shaped by the needs, requests, and realities of our members. We stay connected to the field, its challenges, its shifts, its breakthroughs, and we move with it.

“I subscribe because it helps me provide functional and meaningful tasks to my patients to improve independence.”

“It keeps me current on research topics, and saves me time by providing relevant treatment activities.”

“It gives me resources for client and caregiver education, and keeps my treatment sessions fresh, skilled, and dynamic.”

A Resource for the Real World

Therapists across settings use our materials—in SNFs, hospitals, outpatient clinics, and home health. We see our tools taped to walls, laminated for quick reference, and tucked into patient folders. They’re used in family conversations, therapy sessions, care meetings, and documentation.

“I work with the TBI/CVA population and these materials are AMAZING. I’ve hung a lot of the laminated references in my office and use them daily!”
—Laura Shaw

“I LOVE IT! There were so many diverse activities and resources, and the developer really puts her heart into this.”
—Ashley McCurry

“LOVE EVERYTHING. Can’t wait to implement them at the hospital tomorrow. THANK YOU!!!”
—Mikki Wiley

Moving Forward

Our library grows every month. As we learn more, we adapt—updating resources, reimagining content, and creating new tools to reflect where the field is going. We believe the best therapy happens when we focus on what truly matters to our clients: not just reducing symptoms, but reclaiming meaningful life.

If you’re tired of perfectionism and ready to embrace nuance, welcome. You’re one of us.

“I subscribe because it helps me be a better clinician… and everything is ready for me to use!”
