What is Occupational Therapy?

​​Occupational Therapy is a type of therapy that is provided when a person has physical, sensory, or cognitive delays. Occupational therapy can help a child gain independence in all areas of their lives. Occupational therapists will use everyday activities and exercises to improve issues that may affect a child's emotional, social, and physical needs. This kind of therapy can also help boost a child's self esteem and sense of accomplishment. ​At KidSPOT, we make sure each and every therapy session feels like play time. Our therapists encourage play by having each child participate in motivating activities like board games and art crafts so that children are developing skills while having fun! These physical, cognitive, and sensory skills are necessary so that our kiddos can perform daily tasks more independently!​​​
