About Christine.
Christine Beavers, PT, DPT, is a licensed physical therapist and the founder of Growing Gains Therapy, a boutique pediatric practice in New York City. Since 2018, Christine has worked across diverse therapeutic settings including preschools, home care, teletherapy, and private special education schools, building meaningful connections with children through trust, understanding, and play-based learning.
Christine founded Growing Gains Therapy to create a pediatric practice where families receive personalized, concierge-level attention and children are matched with therapists who truly understand their unique needs. She believes that when children feel seen and understood, they become more engaged and motivated in their own therapeutic journey.
Christine champions a team-based philosophy where families, educators, and therapists work together as unified partners. She understands that parents are the true experts on their children, and she views her role as a knowledgeable guide who helps families build on what they already know while providing specialized tools and strategies for continued growth.
Using a neuroaffirming, strengths-based approach, Christine incorporates each child's unique interests and abilities into engaging, play-based activities that honor their development, promote confidence, and celebrate every milestone. Her therapeutic sessions are designed not just to build specific skills, but to help children discover their own capabilities and develop the confidence to navigate their world.
