How Occupational Therapy can help

Play

Play is how children learn and interact with their world and supports children to explore, engage, use their imagination and begin making decisions.

Child Development

Therapy that’s focused on building a foundation for children’s development and helping them learn new skills in play, communication, social connection, movement and behaviour, thinking and solving problems.

School Readiness

Prepare for the big transition to school by building skills around thinking, language, following directions, self-regulation, drawing and writing, playing with others and much more.

Social Skills

Through relationships we learn important information about our world. This includes conversation and social connection, thinking, making friends, getting along with peers, self-regulation and understanding social concepts.

Physical Skills

Learn how to use your body in ways that are useful to you. This includes fine motor and gross motor skills like crawling, walking, jumping, climbing and moving in other ways. 

Interests and Leisure

Hobbies and interests help us discover our passions and strengths. An OT will assist you to know your strengths, explore new activities and overcome barriers to joining in the activities you love.

Equipment and Assistive Technology

Equipment can assist you to join in everyday activities or complete a task more easily or safely. Equipment can include assistive technology, seats, tables, wheelchairs, kitchen utensils and more!

Sensory Regulation

We experience the world through sensations. An OT can assist you to understand your sensory preferences and needs in different places and spaces.

Life Transitions

Big transitions can be a challenging. Whether it's finishing school, moving out of home, or starting a new job, OT can help you prepare and feel ready for those important changes. 

Self-care

Self-care is about doing well at keeping well and looking after your health. It is about putting your needs first and caring for your body and mind for a healthier life. 

Home and Environment

Make your home and the places you spend time work for you and your safety. This can include building skills around independence or making changes to your home and living situation.

Assessments and Reports

An OT will work on understanding your abilities and what you need. They’ll help you determine what’s important to you and form a therapy plan that’s tailored to your needs.
