A full in-depth occupational therapy evaluation is about 1 1/2 hours and consists of multiple elements, including:
Child's History and Parental Concerns
Parental forms to provide child's history, parent's concerns, pediatrician or school concerns will be collected before the evaluation. During the evaluation we will continue to discuss your concerns and what you would like as your child's goal in therapy.
Observation
We use clinical reasoning developed over years in the field of occupational therapy to determine areas of strength and weakness.
Standardized Testing
We use formal testing to compare your child’s skills to other children the same age.
Reporting
We write a report so that you better understand your child’s strengths and weaknesses which you can share with other professionals that work with your child, including doctors and teachers.
Parent Consultation
We review the written report with you and answer any questions that you have about our findings and recommendations.
Prepare Goals and Treatment Plan
We talk with you about the goals that you have for your child and help you set goals for your child to work on during direct treatment.

Every child is unique and so should their specific therapy session. Therapy will often look like play and to the child feel like play. However each activity is helping your child to reach the goals developed in the evaluation so your child can achieve their highest potential. Private OT sessions are in your home or in a natural setting such as a playground. After each session parents will get a home program to carryover.
Therapy should never be part of your normal routine. All treatment plans will have a start and end date based on goals. Upon goal achievement, therapy will end. Your child’s new skills may then be solidified in their home, school, and community and your family may relax and enjoy a break from appointments. After a break, a new evaluation may or may not be indicated for further services according to your child’s needs.
