What is OT?
Occupational therapy (OT) is a form of treatment that helps people improve their ability to perform everyday activities. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, living with a disability, or managing a health condition that makes daily routines more difficult, occupational therapy can help you live as independently and confidently as possible.
What Does Occupational Therapy Involve?
Occupational therapy usually has three stages:
- Assessment
- Interventions
- Evaluations and outcomes
Support That Grows With Your Child
We understand that the word “intervention” can feel daunting, but don’t worry. In practice, it simply refers to the helpful, guided activities your therapist uses to support your growth and recovery. These might focus on things like mobility, self-care, coordination, memory, or managing your daily routine more comfortably.
Occupational therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Every plan should be tailored to your unique needs, goals, and lifestyle. As you make progress, your therapist will regularly review what’s working and adapt activities to make sure you’re always moving in the right direction.
Consistency Matters—And So Does Flexibility
Occupational therapy is an ongoing process, not a one-time fix. That’s why it’s important to having prioritize consistent care from the same therapist. At Strive, we understand that some weeks just look different – and that’s okay! We offer flexible appointments so you don’t have to worry if you need to adjust a session. We’ll work with you to move your session to an earlier or later date, ensuring you still receive the full number of sessions. Your progress won’t miss a beat.
One Step at a Time, Together
Occupational therapy takes time and adjustments to find the right interventions and therapies to help you accomplish your goals. Be upfront and honest with your therapist about what you want to achieve. It’s not just about what we recommend—it’s about what you want to achieve. We want to hear your goals, concerns, and hopes. Our job is to support your priorities – so, communicate with us! We’re excited to help you reach your goals while feeling stronger and confident throughout this journey.
