Occupational therapy

Occupational therapy (OT) is a type of therapy that helps children who have physical, sensory, or intellectual problems. Our programs will help kids develop age appropriate play skills, social skills, emotional self- regulation, improve body coordination and motor skills, and improve performance with self-care skills.

Occupational therapy evaluation and intervention may focus upon:

  • Fine motor skills
  • Handwriting
  • Visual motor integration
  • Visual perceptual skills
  • Activities of Daily Living (ADL’s) or self care
  • Feeding (Picky eaters or tactile/texture sensory differences)
  • Sensorimotor activities to address motor planning and coordination
  • Sensory processing skills
  • Integrating primitive reflexes
  • Challenging behavior
  • Poor attention/focus
  • Executive functioning skills
  • Community participation & social skills
  • Emotional self-regulation
  • Provision of adaptive equipment
  • Assistive technology
  • Splinting / serial casting / kinesio-taping
  • Upper limb, upper body and core strengthening for improved participation in daily life
  • Caregiver education and training

Referrals for Occupational Therapy

  • More than a six-month delay in achieving age-appropriate developmental milestones

  • Sensory processing skills that interfere with the child’s ability to complete everyday activities, such as:
    • self-care (feeding, dressing, hygiene)

    • functional communication of wants and needs
