Pediatric occupational therapy supports the development of sensory processing, fine motor and visual motor skills, and self-help abilities that enable children to participate successfully in their home, school, play, and community environments.
Occupational therapy helps children who experience challenges with sustained attention, transitioning between tasks or environments, fine motor coordination, handwriting, and independence with daily living skills such as dressing, feeding, and hygiene. Therapy also addresses executive functioning skills that support organization, planning, and emotional regulation.
Our occupational therapists have specialized training to help children build essential everyday skills related to fine motor development, sensory processing, self-care, handwriting, and executive functioning.
