Before you get started
-
Consultation may be a good fit when you have specific questions, want help exploring strategies, or need to prepare for a school conversation.
-
Consultation is a focused discussion. A formal occupational therapy evaluation involves assessment of your child’s skills and participation. If an evaluation or ongoing therapy may be helpful, we can discuss those options.
-
Bring your main questions, examples of what has been difficult, and strategies you’ve already tried. If school documents would be useful, we can discuss which ones to share before we meet.
