Occupational Therapist

Occupational Therapist The Occupational Therapist (OT) provides individualized and group-based therapeutic services to support students' functional participation in academic, social, and daily living activities. Working within a multidisciplinary team, the OT designs and implements interventions that promote sensory regulation, fine motor development, executive functioning, and adaptive skills in alignment with each student's Individualized Education Program (IEP).

We are committed to serving the whole child, including the child's family. Our goal is to assist students in developing the skills necessary to successfully return to a less-restrictive environment, and, ultimately, to their previous school setting.
