Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy practitioners are highly skilled professionals who employ evidence-based methods and research to view each child holistically, ensuring their full engagement in life. By examining the child comprehensively, considering their physical, psychosocial, sensory, cognitive, and emotional aspects, occupational therapists craft personalized care plans.

Occupational therapy is centered around the concept of occupation, encompassing everything your child needs, wants, or must do. While we acknowledge the conventional "job" aspect as children transition into adulthood, we are not merely job coaches. In the realm of pediatric therapy, our role is to facilitate children in fulfilling their most vital "job" – being a kid.

Understanding that your child is intricate and assumes multiple "occupational roles" such as a student, family member, teammate, musician, artist, or friend, we recognize the significance of each role in their life. If your child encounters challenges in fulfilling these roles, an occupational therapist steps in. We help your child harness their strengths, adapting and guiding them to lead a purposeful and fulfilling life.
