Occupational, Physical,
& Speech Therapies

Occupational therapy (OT), physical therapy (PT), and speech language pathology (SLP) are the most common types of therapy. These therapies help kids reach their goals and thrive in everyday life.

Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy helps your child with anything that "occupies" their time.

​

If your child is getting more than one therapy, skills might get divided among your child's therapists. In that case, occupational therapists often focus on the "upper body" (hands and arms).
