Services

At Helping Hands For Kids, occupational therapy is individualized to each child’s strengths, challenges, and functional needs. Our goal is to understand the underlying factors affecting performance and provide purposeful intervention that supports greater participation and independence in everyday life.

EVALUATIONS + SCREENINGS

Comprehensive Assessments

​

We provide comprehensive occupational therapy assessments with detailed documentation of clinical findings, individualized goals, and recommended intervention strategies. These evaluations help guide treatment planning, establish a baseline for progress, and support collaboration with families, schools, and other professionals.

 

Screenings

​

We offer developmental and school-based screenings to help identify children who may benefit from additional support with fine motor skills, handwriting, sensory processing, executive functioning, or other areas affecting participation and school performance. Screenings can help determine whether a more comprehensive evaluation or intervention may be appropriate.

Not sure if occupational therapy may help your child?

​

A formal diagnosis is not always necessary. If your child is having difficulty with movement, coordination, attention, regulation, handwriting, self-care, school participation, or everyday activities, an occupational therapy evaluation can help determine what may be contributing to those challenges.
