You may be here because you're wondering "would my child benefit from occupational therapy?" You are in the right place!

Occupational therapy (OT) enables people of all ages to participate in activities of daily living. OT focus's on the things someone wants and needs to do in their daily life. Occupational therapy intervention uses everyday life activities (occupations) to promote health, well-being, and the ability to participate in important activities in life. This includes any meaningful activity that a person wants or needs to accomplish.

Occupational therapy for young children is primarily implemented through play. I use a strength based approach to identify areas that your child struggles with and areas that they perform well in to create a "just right challenge" with various functional toys! Some areas OT's address include, but are not limited to:

• fine motor skills, arm strengthening, hand/grip strengthening, & core strengthening.

• attention, auditory and visual processing, sensory processing, and sensory regulation.
  
  Your child does not have to have a diagnosis to receive OT services. If you suspect a delay or feel that something may be off, you are probably right! Follow your mama instinct and let's figure it out!
