Pediatric Occupational Therapy
Improve your child's strength, focus, skills and confidence.

Individual Therapy Sessions
Many children benefit from a more individualized approach for enhancing development. kidSHINE occupational therapists are skilled at supporting each child's unique learning style and recognizing how to empower each child to achieve motor milestones and functional independence. kidSHINE's comprehensive OT evaluations identify specific areas of strength and areas of growth that will impact a child's participation in daily occupations (play, school and self care). Weekly treatment sessions utilize a play-based approach and meaningful activities that focus on a child’s specific interests, hidden strengths and talents.
Children who require direct occupational therapy treatment may or may not have a specific diagnosis, but do have specific areas of need that are impacting overall progress and require refined skill development.
Consultation with classroom teachers, other service providers and parents is also a key component in the successful carryover of skills learned in treatment sessions.
