Occupational Therapy

Children who need Occupational Therapy have:

• Difficulty performing daily activities, including eating, dressing or writing
• Sensory processing and dysfunctional visual perception issues
• Poor motor planning, coordination, strength and body awareness

Therapy helps children by:

• Identifying the tools, environment and skills needed to successfully perform daily activities.
• Assessing a child’s daily performance of self-care including grooming and play.
• Creating individual therapy programs that enhance and teach skills such as manipulating objects, feeding and dressing.
• Improve fine motor, gross motor, visual perception and motor skills.
