Occupational Therapy

What is Pediatric Occupational Therapy?

Pediatric occupational therapists work with children and their families to promote functional independence in all their "occupations" - and for children, their occupations are activities that enable them to learn and develop life skills, be creative and play, and thrive in their relationships with others. Therefore, occupational therapists work with children who are having difficulty mastering one or many of their occupations.

Where do I go from here?

If you think your child could benefit from occupational therapy, the first step you should take is getting a referral from your child's pediatrician. This referral can then be sent to our office, where we will reach out to you and schedule an evaluation. You may also call our office and we are happy to provide insight into whether or not we feel your child could benefit from our services.
