Occupational Therapy

Pediatric occupational therapy helps children gain independence so they can more effectively participate in the activities that occur throughout daily life. Pediatric Occupational Therapists are experts in identifying and addressing the skills children need to function and socialize more independently. Our Pediatric Occupational Therapists will evaluate a child’s current skills related to play, school performance, and daily activities. This information will be used to develop a therapeutic plan that is client-specific and tailored to meet the needs of each individual.
