FAQs
What is Pediatric Occupational Therapy (OT)?
Pediatric OT provides customized treatment plans and comprehensive strategies tailored to your child’s development needs. Your child’s main occupation is play. Pediatric OT will offer evidence based treatment techniques through purposeful play to improve: cognitive skills, gross motor skills, fine motor skills, social-emotional skills, self-care/adaptive skills, oral-motor skills, executive functioning, play skills, handwriting, visual-motor skills and sensory processing skills.
Your child will develop the confidence to master the skills needed for independence!
How Can OT Help My Child?
Does your child have difficulty with:
Impulse control
Eating a variety of foods
Meltdowns/tantrums at home or in different environments
Social skills or eye contact
Playing with toys (such as throwing or mouthing)
Completing homework (such as handwriting, copying notes, sequencing tasks to completion)
Executive functioning skills (such as time management, task initiation, organizing, attention or self control)
Dressing activities (such as zipping their jacket or tying their shoes)
Staying on task (easily distracted)
Climbing structures at the park
Coordination or strength throughout body
Reaching developmental milestones
Activities that come more easily for other kids their age

What is a Parent Consultation?
A Parent Consultation is an introductory opportunity to ask questions and discuss concerns about your child. During the session, specific recommendations for strategies, modifications, and accommodations will be offered to you.
If your child has a new diagnosis, an IEP, specific behaviors affecting daily function, or to determine if your child may need OT, a Parent Consultation may be right for you!
What is a Child Development Consultation?
A Child Development Consultation is a one-time session for you to discuss main concerns and ask questions. This is different from the Parent Consultation, because direct clinical observation of your child (in-person or teleheath) is included to identify goals as well as a plan of care including strategies, modifications, and accommodations.
