Frequently Asked Questions

What does an occupational therapist actually do with my child?
Our OTs use structured play, sensory activities, and skill-building exercises tailored to help your child manage daily tasks more independently — from buttoning clothes to holding a pencil.
How do I know if my child needs occupational therapy?
Signs include difficulty with handwriting, dressing, using utensils, avoiding tactile activities, or appearing clumsy. A consultation can help determine whether OT is the right fit.
What are sensory processing difficulties?
Some children are over- or under-sensitive to sensory input such as sound, touch, or movement. This can affect their ability to focus, participate in activities, and regulate emotions.
Will my child need special equipment or tools?
Some children benefit from sensory tools such as weighted vests, fidget tools, or special pencil grips. We guide families on appropriate options based on the child's profile.
How does OT help with school performance?
Occupational therapy strengthens the skills needed for classroom success — handwriting, attention span, organization, and the ability to sit and focus during lessons.
