Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy treatment focuses on helping people of all ages achieve independence in certain areas of their lives. It can provide positive, fun activities to improve cognitive, physical, and motor skills, enhance self-esteem as well as provide a sense of accomplishment.
An Occupational therapist can evaluate a child’s skills for play activities, school performance, sensory processing, and activities of daily living and compare them to what is developmentally appropriate for a certain age group.
