Occupational Therapy

At Great Kids Therapy, our Occupational Therapists goal is to help your child be more independent in their "jobs" and roles throughout the day. Your child has a lot on their plate. Between getting ready in the morning, eating, school/daycare, playing with friends, sleeping, and much more.

We also know that parents/caregivers have a lot on their plate and enjoy helping parents support their children in meeting their goals.

Areas we treat may include, but are not limited to:

Self-Care Skill
Eating
Play
Sleep
Sensory Processing
Emotional Regulation
Attention
Coordination
