The focus of Occupational therapy is to assist children in achieving the highest 
level of independence through functional activities and play. Our therapists use a child-directed approach to elicit language and target therapy goals with fun, meaningful activities, and have received advanced training in many of the latest researched based therapeutic approaches, including Astronaut Training, The rapeutic Listening, Handwriting Without Tears, and Sequential-Oral-Sensory (SOS) approach to feeding. We incorporate these strategies into a comprehensive treatment plan that addresses each child’s unique needs.
