Services
This practice offers Occupational Therapy assessments and treatment for children from birth to 13 years of age. We are dedicated to treat limitations (physical disabilities, social, emotional, executive functioning, motor skills and visual perceptual skills) and learning difficulties, hindering activities of daily living, through play-based activities and by making sure that the children achieve their developmental milestones and optimal performance within the home and school environment.
Play based Therapy
By incorporating play into occupational therapy, we create a supportive and engaging environment that fosters growth and development. This playful approach not only captures a child’s interest but also motivates them to participate actively in therapy.
Assessment and Treatment
When we assess a child, we focus on identifying any sensory processing issues, visual perceptual challenges, coordination difficulties, or emotional and cognitive barriers that may hinder their ability to play effectively. Through tailored activities and interventions, we address these underlying issues while ensuring that each session feels like an enjoyable experience.
Parent Collaboration
The collaboration with parents is crucial. Our feedback sessions after each assessment provide parents with valuable insights into their child’s progress and strategies to support their development at home. By maintaining open communication and aligning our therapy goals with family objectives, we create a cohesive support system that maximizes the child’s potential.
Ultimately, our mission is to enhance the child’s ability to engage in play (appropriate for their age and stage of development) — essential to their development and well-being — so they can thrive both in therapy and in everyday life. Together, we celebrate achievements, navigate challenges, and create a positive impact on each child’s journey.
