Occupational therapy is a client-centered health profession focused on promoting health and well-being through engagement in meaningful activities, or occupations. Occupational therapists work with individuals of all ages to address physical, cognitive, emotional, and environmental factors that affect their ability to participate in daily activities. Whether you're recovering from an injury, managing a chronic condition, or seeking support for a developmental delay, occupational therapy can help you regain independence, improve function, and enhance your overall quality of life.

Occupational therapy may be beneficial for individuals experiencing difficulties with activities of daily living, mobility, fine motor skills, cognitive abilities, sensory processing, social interaction, or vocational tasks. If you or your loved one are facing challenges in these areas, consulting with an occupational therapist can help determine if therapy is appropriate and how it can address specific needs and goals.

In many cases, a referral from a physician or other healthcare provider is required to initiate occupational therapy services. However, some insurance plans may allow direct access to occupational therapy without a referral. We recommend contacting our office or your insurance provider to determine the specific requirements for accessing occupational therapy services.
