Occupational Therapy

Pediatric occupational therapy focuses on helping children develop the skills they need to grow into functional, independent adults. Physical impairment, injuries and a host of other issues can hinder a child’s ability to perform common tasks known as activities of daily living or progress normally through the stages of social or cognitive development.

Speech Therapy

​

Pediatric speech therapy focuses on helping children improve their communication and feeding abilities. This therapy focuses on addressing challenges with speech, language, fluency, voice, and even swallowing or feeding difficulties.

​

Speech therapy might involve improving pronunciation and clarity of sounds, while language therapy could focus on helping children express themselves better or understand others. 

​

It's commonly used to support children with speech delays, developmental disorders, hearing impairments, autism spectrum disorder, or other conditions affecting communication.
