Pediatric Occupational Therapy Services
Creating Connections provides occupational therapy services through a naturalistic environment model, utilizing a holistic and family centered approach to meet the needs of children and their families.
Through utilizing this approach, we are able to increase harmony and wellness with each of our clients and their specific family unit, which helps accelerate success in the meaningful occupations for the entire family and across all settings. Each treatment session is thoughtfully planned and geared specifically to the needs of the child, typically held within the family's home, a community environment or our clinic’s playspace. We believe in creating a team approach with the child’s caregivers, teachers and other professionals in order to create the best treatment plan possible. The Creating Connections approach includes educating, training and empowering caregivers and other professionals in strategies to help the child succeed in all areas of their daily lives.
