Occupational Therapy Across the Lifespan
As occupational therapists, we take a holistic view of you as a unique individual, including your strengths, experiences, environment, and challenges with your occupations. “Occupations” are all the everyday meaningful activities in which you participate (or wish to participate!). For children, this includes playing, making friends, learning new skills, and going to school. For adults, this includes leisure activities, self-care, caring for others, career, and home management.
It is easy to take for granted your primary roles and activities until a developmental challenge or life event creates restrictions or constrictions. At Greenhouse Therapy Center, our Occupational Therapists use a developmental relationship-based approach, which is an evidence-based approach, to focus each session on helping you or your child improve in the areas most important for you. We incorporate your passions as well as your unique psychological, physical, emotional, and social characteristics in order to co-create goals and a treatment plan.
