Treating ADHD with Occupational Therapy
According to the CDC, “Children with ADHD may have trouble paying attention, controlling impulsive behaviors (may act without thinking about what the result will be), or be overly active.” We have a passion for helping children cope with these behaviors.Â
Occupational therapy interventions play a crucial role in addressing the multifaceted challenges associated with ADHD. By targeting specific areas of difficulty, such as executive function deficits, impulsivity, attention difficulties and sensory processing issues, occupational therapists work to enhance the child’s overall functioning and quality of life. Specific therapies used in occupational therapy for ADHD may include:
- Sensory integration therapy to address sensory processing difficulties
- Executive function training activities to improve cognitive skills like organization and time management
- Behavioral interventions focused on social skills
Overcoming Autism With Occupational Therapy
The National Autistic Society, explains that occupational therapy is the key to helping your child’s nervous system become more organized and regulated. We focus on addressing specific areas of difficulty commonly associated with autism, such as sensory processing issues, social communication deficits, motor coordination difficulties and challenges with daily living skills. Components of our autism-focused treatment plans in occupational therapy encompass a range of approaches tailored to meet the individual needs of each child. These components may include:
- Adaptive behavior training to enhance self-care skills
- Social skills training to enhance social communication
- Fine and gross motor skill development activities to improve motor coordination and body awareness
Improving Quality of Life with Therapy
According to the Cerebral Palsy Alliance Research Foundation, occupational and physical therapy can help improve the quality of life for children with a Cerebral Palsy diagnosis by focusing on their daily living skills. We target specific areas affected by cerebral palsy, including motor function, mobility, self-care skills and participation in daily activities.
Areas of cerebral palsy-focused treatment plans in therapy encompass a range of strategies tailored to address the diverse needs of individuals with cerebral palsy. Our approach may include:
