Philosophy
At Confident Kids OT, we embrace that no one child or family is
the same. We never see a diagnosis as defining a kid, and in turn realize that some “problems” can actually be nurtured into great strengths. We use a holistic approach to working with you and your child. This means that we treat the sensory, motor, social-emotional, and environmental factors influencing your child as equally important and dependent upon one another.
We believe a child’s positive development takes a team. We are happy to collaborate with your child, family, school, other health professionals, coaches, and anyone else that we identify as a valued team member.
We also require a parent or caregiver to be present during sessions. This helps caregivers increase their knowledge of their child’s challenges and build a consistent intervention style and language across their environments.
Another important aspect of our occupational therapy is the need for achievable home programming to complete outside of therapy. Establishing a consistent routine that emphasizes a balance of support and therapeutic challenge is key to more efficient development.
Our ultimate goal is to empower THE CHILD and the family. Initially, we might have to provide a lot of support to our kids and caregivers, but with regular therapy and education, parents can take pride and ownership in knowing all of the “tricks of the trade.” Eventually, with increased self-awareness, the child can also learn about what they need and how to advocate for themselves!
Let’s give our kids the tools they need to take on the world!
