Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy focused on the skills and adaptations that help people participate more fully in everyday activities.
Who this may support
Individuals seeking support with motor, sensory, daily living, or functional participation skills.
Participation is the goal
Occupational therapy helps people take part in the activities that matter in daily life. Depending on assessed needs, those activities may include self-care, play, learning, household routines, community participation, or preparation for work.
An occupational-therapy professional evaluates the person’s abilities, environment, routines, and barriers. Treatment then focuses on relevant skills and practical adaptations rather than making broad promises based on a diagnosis alone.
