Occupational Therapy

Welcome to Metro Autism's Occupational Therapy Service page. Occupational therapy plays a vital role in addressing sensory processing difficulties and enhancing daily living skills for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). At Metro Autism, our Occupational Therapy program is designed to help individuals with autism thrive in various environments and activities.

What is Occupational Therapy?

Occupational therapy is a therapeutic approach that focuses on helping individuals develop or regain the skills needed for daily living and meaningful activities. Occupational therapists work with individuals to improve fine motor skills, sensory processing, self-care abilities, and participation in activities of daily living.

Our Approach:

At Metro Autism, our Occupational Therapy program is personalized to meet the unique needs of each individual. Our experienced occupational therapists conduct comprehensive assessments to identify areas of strength and areas for improvement. Based on the assessment findings, we develop personalized treatment plans that target specific goals and objectives.

Benefits of Occupational Therapy:

  • Fine Motor Skills: Occupational therapy can help individuals with autism improve fine motor skills, such as handwriting, drawing, and using utensils.

  • Sensory Processing: Occupational therapy can address sensory processing difficulties, helping individuals regulate their responses to sensory input and participate more fully in activities.

  • Self-Care Skills: Occupational therapy can improve self-care skills, such as dressing, grooming, and feeding, promoting independence and autonomy.

  • Participation in Activities: Occupational therapy can help individuals with autism participate in meaningful activities at home, school, and in the community, enhancing quality of life.

Our Team:

At Metro Autism, our Occupational Therapy program is delivered by a team of experienced occupational therapists who specialize in working with individuals with autism. Our therapists have extensive training and experience in providing evidence-based occupational therapy interventions.

Parent/Caregiver Involvement:

We believe that parental involvement is essential in the success of occupational therapy. Our therapists work closely with parents and caregivers to provide training, support, and resources to help reinforce skills learned in therapy sessions and promote generalization of skills to various settings.
