Starting occupational therapy can feel like a big step for parents and kids alike. However, your therapist is well-equipped to guide you through the process, getting to know your child on an individual, one-to-one basis. From this knowledge, they will be able to provide you with resources to learn more about how you can best support your child’s unique needs.
As they learn more about these needs and your lived experience, your therapist will be able to empower you as parents and caregivers to help your child practice critical skills at home, in school and in the community. Your therapist is your ally as a caregiver, and will thoughtfully address your feedback in order to create the best possible outcome for you and your family.
With a parent’s unique input and the guidance of an expert occupational therapist, children of all ages can start down the path to turn their challenges into triumphs. Think occupational therapy may benefit your child? Give us a call to schedule an evaluation at (919) 378-1340.
