Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy supports children of all ages—newborns to teenagers—by incorporating the occupations of children (playing, learning, sleeping and resting, interacting with friends, getting dressed, and other daily activities) that are important to you and your child into the intervention process.

Following an evaluation, recommendations are made. A therapy plan and specific interventions will take into account your child’s unique strengths and needs. This may include modifying the task or the environment as well as providing training for parents and caretakers.
