Occupational Therapy
Support for sensory processing, motor skills, feeding, self-regulation and daily living.
ACT's Occupational Therapists provide assessment, education, and individualized intervention to support infants, children, and youth in developing the skills needed for everyday life. Services may focus on sensory processing, fine and gross motor development, feeding, self-regulation, and activities of daily living such as dressing, eating, and personal care.
Our Occupational Therapists work with children and youth with autism spectrum disorder, developmental disabilities, developmental delays, sensory processing differences, visual-spatial challenges, and motor delays. They partner with families to build on each child's strengths and help them participate more successfully at home, at school, and in their community.
