Our first priority is helping your child

Occupational Therapy for your child

Occupational therapy provides specialized interventions to children who are experiencing difficulties in one or more areas throughout their daily activities. Occupational Therapy services are typically provided in the form of individual treatment and if appropriate collaboration will other specialists/disciplines can occur. Interventions are designed to promote a healthy lifestyle, establish needed skills, modify the environment, and support participation in daily activities.

They work with children and their families to maximize a child’s potential to grow into an independent adult and to reduce environmental barriers. Playing is the core of treatment as it is the primary motivator for children when working to address functional skills to be used at home, school, and throughout the community. Our therapists offer services to children up to 18 years of age, including early intervention for children from birth to three years of age.
