Willow Occupational Therapy at Oak Learners
Like a tree, every child grows at their own pace and in their own direction. Our private tutors nurture that growth with personalized, one-on-one support, from JK through University.
About WillowOT
Willow Occupational Therapy offers individualized and private therapy sessions for children and young adults. With a focus on developing independence, Willow employs evidence-based practices and a collaborative approach to skill development that encompasses family, community and the individual.
Willow offers home-, school-, and daycare-based therapy sessions. We focus on working with individuals in “real-life” environments because it provides a more natural and un-fabricated perspective of a client’s life. This contributes to more authentic and personalized assessments and ultimately more successful interventions. Collaboration with Parents and Teachers is also paramount for successful programming. We treat members of a client’s social circle as teammates as they provide not only an in-depth understanding of the challenges and concerns that clients face, but also insight into the goals a client should strive to meet.
Occupational Therapy Services
Willow OT provides assessments, therapeutic interventions, and consultations in the home setting or at school. By employing formal assessment tools and significant clinical experience, Willow’s Comprehensive Assessment Process ensures the best form of intervention for the client. With a focus on customizing programming to meet the unique needs of individual clients, interventions imbed therapeutic techniques into everyday activities that are relevant, realistic and most importantly fun!
