Occupational Therapy

Occupational Therapy (OT) for kids helps them succeed in the important areas of their lives, their "occupations of childhood”, including play, eating, sleeping, dressing, social participation, and education. OTs address delays or concerns in the areas of:

  • fine and gross motor skills

  • cognitive skills, sensory processing

  • social development

  • self-care

OT works to build foundational skills by using specialized equipment and playful sensory-motor activities to provide the "just right" challenge for children as they develop skills through participation in their occupations.

Our Philosophy

At ICAN, our occupational therapists are trained in child-led, strengths-based therapy that fosters connections between therapists and children in order to accomplish goals together. Our occupational therapists acknowledge your child’s developmental, sensory, and communicative needs and adapt accordingly.

We provide one­-on-one therapy sessions with frequent socialization opportunities with peers, and utilize a comprehensive interdisciplinary developmental framework by collaborating with families, speech therapists, physical therapists, BCBAs, psychologists, school teams, and more.
