Occupational Therapy
When a parent hears that their child will need “occupational therapy” (OT), it might sound like their child needs help with “work skills.” In reality occupational therapy is focused on skills that help children do well in their daily life. Our therapists help children of all different abilities improve their fine motor, sensory issues, coordination, handwriting, play, dressing and eating abilities. And you can be assured, even though we challenge the children, we never make it feel like “work.”
Our staff is trained in many specialty areas to help improve school readiness and performance; self-help such as feeding, dressing and grooming; safety, focus and attention, play/social interaction, eye-hand coordination, self-calming, organization and more. Families receive support to help them apply therapy techniques at home.
