Pediatric Occupational Therapy

Occupational Therapy (OT) is a unique type of therapy that helps children tackle challenges in their daily lives. For children facing developmental delays or specific conditions, issues can arise with sensory processing, motor skills, perception, thinking, or social interactions. Our occupational therapists work intimately with clients through focused interventions, prompting and improving everyday activities like eating, dressing, playing, and learning. The goal of occupational therapy is to help children thrive and enjoy more independent, satisfying lives.

Would my child benefit from OT?

This question is quite common! If your child has difficulties with any age appropriate skills, OT will likely be able to help! Whether it be self-help skills (dressing, brushing teeth), fine motor skills (handwriting, buttoning), or difficulties processing sensory stimuli (clothing is too itchy, sounds are too loud, food textures are too intense), we are here to help!

What is feeding therapy?

At BBPT, our OTs use a multitude of approaches to help your child become more excited about foods! Our goal is to get them intrinsically motivated to try new foods, and use approaches that the child will enjoy. It’s all about having fun while learning!

Evaluation

This includes the initial assessment of your child. The Occupational Therapist works alongside the parent/caregiver to assess your child’s individual abilities, needs and concerns related to their daily life. The assessment may include standardized procedures and consultation.

Planning

Based on the results of the assessment, we determine if occupational therapy is appropriate for your child. If so, short and long-term goals are discussed, relevant to your child’s developmental stage, habits, interests, and environment.

Intervention

Intervention includes therapeutic activities tailored to address your child’s goals. Intervention strategies are designed to facilitate performance of everyday tasks and adaptation of settings for your child’s environment.
