When is OT needed?

When is OT Needed?

If your child or adolescent is experiencing challenges engaging in daily activities they want or need to do, make an appointment with Kids Therapy Station to discuss how occupational therapy may help.

This might look like:

  • Challenges with self-care skills and routines such as dressing, toileting, feeding, bathing/washing, tying shoelaces, brushing teeth

  • Not reaching their milestones (or losing some skills)

  • Difficulty maintaining attention on tasks within the classroom

  • Struggling to manage emotions in different environments

  • Finding it hard to adapt to change or following a routine

  • Unsure of how to establish relationships with their peers and make friends

  • Poor gross and fine motor skills, such as difficulties with ball games, writing or drawing

  • Difficulty with sensory processing impacting on daily activities such as grooming, feeding, and coping in certain environments due to noise and other stimuli

  • Challenges in the community such as managing money and keeping appointments/schedules
