Developmental Disabilities

Common Occupational Therapy interventions include helping clients with disabilities to participate fully in school/home/work and social situations, to regain skills, and to adapt.

For children with developmental delays or disabilities, Occupational Therapy can help improve their motor, cognitive, sensory processing, communication, and play skills.

For adults with intellectual disabilities, altered communication skills, and behavioural challenges, Occupational Therapy can utilize behavioural modification techniques, environmental modifications, sensory strategies, and chaining for cognitive deficits. We also work as advocates for our clients in collaborating with educators, employers and caregivers to optimize outcomes.
