Olive Tree Occupational Therapy offers occupational therapy evaluations and individualized one-to-one treatment sessions designed to support children and teens reach their goals.
Olive Tree Occupational Therapy serves clients from birth to age 21. We see adult clients who have developmental disabilities and are in need of OT services. Spanish services are also available.
Occupational therapy can target fine and gross motor skills, visual motor integration, activities of daily living, sensory processing, emotional regulation, and executive functional skills resulting in improved function at home, school, and in the community.
Services are provided using a combination of traditional therapy modalities, along with innovative expert clinical resources for those that need additional support.
Children and teens who experience complex challenges (such as non-speaking autism, dysregulation (behavior challenges), PANDAS, apraxia and other complex conditions) are no exception, in fact we have a passion for bringing comprehensive treatment and experince in motor apraxia, ANS dysfunction/fight or flight reactions, interoception, and collaborative and proactive solutions approach.
