We’re Here to Help…

Occupational Therapy

OT sessions will focus on helping your child do their daily life with more independence. We will design meaningful activities to help them build motor skills and sensory processing abilities in the areas that matter most— whether it’s self-care, play, sports, schoolwork, leisure activities, social skills, or functional life tasks.

Parent Training

At OT Time, we know that parents are vital to their child’s success. We provide caregiver education in both small group and individual formats to help you:

  • Feel more connected to your child

  • Co-regulate with successful calming tools

  • Learn how genetics and history impact your child today

  • Strengthen your child’s foundation of development

  • Improve your child’s self-care, nutrition, and sleep

  • Raise resilient children in a challenging world

Physical Therapy

PT sessions will work on improving your child’s strength and mobility for activities they do every day. From learning to balance, walk, stand, run, or throw, our physical therapists are experts at building skills through games and obstacles courses. We make exercises feel like play so that sessions are always fun and motivating!

Groups

Along with individualized therapy sessions, OT Time hosts group programs for children and families. Join our 6-week toddler program, or sign your school-age child up for a group this summer!
