What We Support
Pediatric Occupational Therapy Services
We support children with developmental and functional challenges that affect daily routines, regulation, motor skills, school participation, and independence. Every child begins with an evaluation, and treatment is guided by an individualized plan of care with measurable, occupation-based goals.
Evaluation & Treatment
Every child begins with an occupational therapy evaluation
The evaluation helps us understand your child's strengths, needs, functional challenges, and goals. If treatment is recommended, sessions are guided by an individualized plan of care with measurable, occupation-based goals.
Therapy may include the following areas depending on your child's evaluation, treatment plan, goals, and clinical needs. Children do not need a formal diagnosis to benefit from occupational therapy.
