Occupational Therapy
Our Holistic Approach to Occupational Therapy
Introduction
We understand that each individual with autism is unique, with distinct needs and potential. That’s why our occupational therapy approach goes beyond conventional methods. We integrate ABA, biomedical interventions, sensory integration practices, and the Anat Baniel Method to create a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to each client’s specific needs.
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
Behavioral Strategies: We use ABA to help improve social skills, communication, and learning strategies through positive reinforcement, making it easier for clients to navigate daily challenges.
Biomedical Protocol
Whole-Person Health: Our therapy includes biomedical assessments and interventions focusing on diet, gut health, and metabolic conditions that may influence cognitive and physical health, supporting overall well-being.
Multisensory Integration
Tactile Feedback: By incorporating touch alongside traditional visual and auditory feedback, OPT engages multiple senses to reinforce learning, making it especially effective for clients who benefit from hands-on learning.
Coordination and Motor Skills: OPT also helps in developing better motor control beyond speech, including breathing and swallowing techniques.
Sensory Integration
Customized Sensory Therapies: We address sensory processing issues by creating personalized sensory diets and activities designed to help clients better process and respond to the sensory information in their environment.
Anat Baniel Method (NeuroMovement)
Movement-Based Learning: The Anat Baniel Method utilizes gentle movements and focus on the body’s ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections, enhancing physical, cognitive, and emotional growth.
