This webpage provides an overview of our occupational therapy services, detailing the conditions we treat, the services we provide, and the numerous benefits that occupational therapy offers to children.
Conditions Occupational Therapy Treats in Children:
Occupational therapy is beneficial for children facing various challenges that impact their daily lives. Our occupational therapists have expertise in treating the following conditions:

Occupational therapy helps children who struggle with sensory processing difficulties, enabling them to effectively process sensory information and respond appropriately to environmental stimuli.

Occupational therapists address delays in fine motor skills (such as writing, cutting, and buttoning) and gross motor skills (like balance, coordination, and strength), helping children develop these essential abilities.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD):
Occupational therapy supports children with ASD in developing essential life skills, enhancing their sensory regulation, communication, social interactions, and self-care capabilities.
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD):
Occupational therapy provides strategies to improve attention, self-regulation, and organizational skills, enabling children with ADHD to thrive in academic and social settings.
Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD):
Occupational therapy assesses and intervenes in areas such as gross and fine motor coordination, balance, and body awareness to enhance a child's motor development.
