[Madison, WI – July 28, 2025] — Aspire Therapy & Development Services is proud to celebrate its 10th anniversary this week, marking a decade of growth, impact, and commitment to children and families across Wisconsin.
Since opening its doors in 2015, Aspire has grown from a small therapy practice into a multi-location, interdisciplinary team serving hundreds of children every week. From speech and occupational therapy to mental health, physical therapy, and feeding therapy, Aspire has continually evolved its programs to meet the needs of the communities it serves.
“Aspire began as a vision of high-quality integrated therapies for kids and their families,” said Dana Bohrer, founder and CEO. “Ten years later, that vision has become a reality. We’ve built a place where kids can thrive, families feel supported, and professionals come together to make a real difference. At the heart of it all are our incredible pediatric therapists – speech-language pathologists, OTs, PTs, mental health clinicians – who bring their expertise, creativity, and passion to every child they serve. They are the heartbeat of Aspire, and their dedication inspires me every single day.”
Over the past decade, Aspire has:
● Expanded to two clinic locations, in Madison and Verona.
● Added new specialties including pediatric physical therapy, feeding therapy, pelvic floor
therapy, and mental health therapy.
● Built strong relationships with schools, healthcare providers, and community partners.
● Invested in a team of over 20 dedicated professionals who share a passion for helping
kids succeed.
This year, Aspire is focused not just on celebrating its past but also on building its future. With increased staff capacity, streamlined intake systems, and convenient clinic hours, Aspire is now able to welcome more families into care without long waitlists.
“Every family that reaches out to us is looking for hope and help,” said Bohrer. “We want to be ready to say yes, and to say it quickly. That’s what this next chapter is about: more access, more connection, and more kids getting the support they need, when they need it.”
Celebrating with the Community
To mark the 10-year milestone, Aspire is hosting a week of celebration that includes:
● A celebration party for families and staff
● A volleyball tournament to raise funds for specialty equipment
● Stories and photos highlighting Aspire’s journey on social media
● Moments of reflection and gratitude for the people who made it all possible
