Help for your child starts here.

We welcome children of all ages and work collaboratively with parents, caregivers, teachers, and medical teams to provide individually tailored occupational therapy to meet your child’s unique needs.

What is Occupational Therapy?

Occupational therapy helps children play, learn, grow, and thrive by addressing challenges related to movement, coordination, social emotional skills, sensory processing, eating, and independence with everyday activities.

Occupational therapy can help kids develop:

Fine Motor Skills
Including the ability to write, color, type, cut with scissors, or tie shoes.

Gross Motor Skills
Such as crawling, walking, running, jumping, throwing a ball, getting around the playground, and riding a bike.

Cognitive and Executive Functioning Skills
These include attention, memory, problem solving, organization, and safety awareness.

Feeding and Self Care Skills
Such as using a spoon and fork, chewing and swallowing independently and safely, dressing and undressing, using a bathroom, and bathing.

Sensory Processing Skills
The ability to receive, organize, and interpret sensory information from the body and environment for self-regulation and motor planning. Some children may react too strongly to sensory experiences, while others may not react strongly enough.

Social Emotional Development
These include building self advocacy skills, developing awareness of social communication differences, learning about social norms, making new friends, and learning how to engage with others during play, home, and school activities.
