Occupational therapists empower children to develop life skills through engagement in fun and functional activities.
If your child struggles in any way with daily life skills, they may benefit from OT! This could include participating in school, playing appropriately with other children, emotional regulation, trying new foods (eating a balanced diet), self-care (dressing, grooming, etc.), or engaging in fine motor activities such as handwriting, using utensils or managing fasteners.
Children ages 0-18 may benefit from occupational therapy especially if they have a diagnosis such as autism, ADHD, or a sensory processing disorder.
OT sessions are one hour long and occur at the same day and time each week. During this time, your child will participate in fun and playful activities to develop skills and increase their confidence. We hope for parents to be available to receive recommendations and discuss ongoing challenges with the therapist at the end of each session.
We first require a referral from your child’s pediatrician indicating a need for occupational therapy. When we receive this, we will contact you and schedule an initial evaluation to discuss any concerns and create a treatment plan before beginning weekly treatment sessions. The evaluation may take up to an hour and a half to address all concerns.
