Logo for Foundations Therapy, Building to Full Potential

Develop meaningful skills for everyday activities.

Occupational therapy (OT) uses meaningful activities to develop, restore, and adapt skills for people to fully participate in everyday life.

Occupational Therapy

With children, meaningful every day activities include play, school participation, movement activities, self-cares, engaging in community outings and more. Occupational therapists who work with children focus on developing the skills necessary for these activities. At Foundations Therapy, the focus is not on rote practice of skills, but instead targeting the underlying issues.

Occupational therapy sessions at Foundations Therapy are often very play-based and child-centered. This keeps the child motivated, open to new challenges, and helps them achieve more success.

Develop

Our therapists can help your child develop new skills for daily living and play skills. 

Restore

OT can help children restore the ability to complete tasks that may be challenging due to illness or injury. 

Adapt

Modifying tasks to meet a child’s needs and help them succeed is our specialty.
