Our
treatment approach typically includes individual weekly therapy sessions
in our clinic, in combination with consultation to you, the parents,
to help you extend the benefits of the therapy in the home environment.
We
always emphasize parent education to maximize benefits from the therapy.
Parents are always welcome to observe the therapy sessions to fully
understand which approaches may be helpful and witness their child's
development while he or she is having fun. We maintain close communication
with our families.
In the past few years, whenever occupational therapy
treatment has been recommended, we have often implemented a Sound Therapy
program as part of our treatment and consultation. We have found that
Sound Therapy often cuts down on the length of therapy and accelerates
the child's rate of progress, or at other times, simply yields results
that would have been unlikely with traditional therapy.
Our therapy sessions focus on many educational, emotional,
motor, sensory, social, and overall developmental factors. We primarily
utilize sensory processing, sensory motor and psychosocial approaches.
For our younger clients, we always add a strong play component in all
of our sessions, which encourages creativity, imagination, emotional
flexibility, and healthy exploration. For our older clients, we add
a meta-cognitive approach, which promotes self reflection, self monitoring,
and better learning.
