Intensives
Occupational Therapy Intensives
Recent research indicates that therapy is most effective when delivered in "bursts" of treatment. Intensives are sessions designed to accomplish a goal in a shorter amount of time. Typically 3-5 times a week for 1-2 hours a day of occupational therapy based on your therapist's recommendation and individual treatment goals. Some families chose to focus on intensive therapy for one month and then take a break for two-three months while changes become integrated and utilized.
Intensives are great to help with transitions (i.e., back to school), participation in group activities, preparation for fall and team sports, and/or organization and attention concerns. They can also be helpful when your child is facing a new developmental challenge or whenever your family wishes to enhance or reinforce the changes effected by ongoing therapy.
Auditory/Occupational Therapy Intensives
This is a great introduction to our intensive listening services or as a boost for those who have already completed a listening program. By incorporating occupational therapy during the listening sessions we can truly integrate the whole body. We will work together as a team to design a customized program for your child based on their individual treatment goals.
This is especially useful for those who have trouble listening and attending in a multi-sensory environment, have trouble looking at you when speaking and/or participating in social/group situations.
