Occupational Therapy
Our Occupational Therapy team supports clients to live life to its fullest! We help clients across their lifespan participate in meaningful activities, known as occupations. In childhood, these activities include daily tasks such as dressing, feeding, play, school, and sleep. Our goal is to support and increase our clients' independence throughout the day no matter the age. No two sessions are alike! We individualize our services to meet client and family needs. SLEA provides both group and individual services. Our OT team remains up to date on research and frequently collaborates with other services for high quality continuity of care.
