Is it challenging to communicate with your child? Does your child have a hard time expressing themselves, leading to possible tantrums or outbursts?

Communication skills are vital to children of all ages and can affect all aspects of daily life. Those skills include expressing daily wants and needs, developing social skills, and understanding concepts at home or in daycare/school. Our pediatric speech-language pathologists and speech-language pathologist assistants are experts in helping children who are struggling to speak or to be understood when speaking or do not seem to understand/process directions or understand daily routines. At Action Therapy, we pride ourselves on taking a universal approach to treatment by understanding the specific needs of your child and family, then providing the essential support to meet those unique needs.

Does your child have poor coordination? Is it difficult for your child to perform daily activities like buttoning clothes, tying shoes, zipping jackets, or sitting still? Maybe even outbursts due to sensory seeking?

During the childhood stages, your little one’s “job” is to play, as well as learning self-care skills. This alone is their occupation. Activities included in a child’s occupation may include writing, dressing, cutting, washing hands, using utensils, manipulating toys, and coordinating movements in play. At Action Therapy our highly trained Occupational Therapists and Certified Occupational Therapy Assistants focus on the physical, sensory, and cognitive issues that can possibly hold back your child’s job. We assess and treat these issues by understanding the specific needs of your child and family, then providing the essential support to meet those unique needs.
