What is Occupational Therapy?

Occupational therapy helps children play, learn, grow, and thrive by addressing challenges related to feeding skills, sensory processing, social emotional, movement, coordination skills, and independence with everyday activities.

Occupational therapy can help kids develop:

Feeding Skills and Other Adaptive Skills: such as transitioning to oral feed from NG and G-tube feed, twins and triplets bottle and breast feeding safety, solid foods progression, chewing and swallowing independently and safely, dressing and undressing, or toilet training. 

 

Fine Motor Skills: including the ability to use hands to write, color, type, cut with scissors, or tie shoes.

Gross Motor Skills: such as crawling, walking, running, jumping, climbing, and getting around the playground. 

Sensory Processing Skills: the ability to receive, organize, and interpret sensory information from the body and environment for self-regulation and motor planning. Some children may react too strongly to sensory experiences, while others may not react strongly enough.

Cognitive and Executive Functioning Skills: these include attention, memory, problem solving, organization, and safety awareness.

Social Emotional Development: these include building self advocacy skills, developing awareness of social communication differences, learning about social norms, making new friends, and learning how to engage with others during play, home, and school activities.

  • Feeding difficulties with or without the diagnosis of Avoidant/Restrictive Intake Disorder (ARFID), Pediatric Feeding Disorder (PFD), Neurological Condition, Psychosocial Condition, Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), Congenital Heart Defects (CHD), Food Protein Intolerance Enterocolitis Syndrome (FPIES).
