OT Assessment
“Education begins the moment we see children as innately wise and capable beings. Only then can we play along in their world. ”

Sensory processing ~ Delayed milestones ~ Emotional regulation ~ Printing ~ Dressing skills ~ Hygiene skills ~ Playground skills ~ Motor planning ~ Balance ~ Reflex integration ~ Grasping skills ~ Hand dominance ~ Body awareness ~ Postural control ~ School readiness ~ Attention ~ Infant development ~ Behavioral concerns
comprehensive Assessment
Our comprehensive assessment involves multiple standardized assessments when applicable, clinical observation, parent education, and a written report.
The assessment report includes interpretation and explanation of all results and clinical observations, as well as a list of recommendations.
clinical consultation
Our clinical consultation includes standardized testing when applicable, clinical observation, parent education, and a one-page summary of recommendations.
This option is recommended for families who have a previous OT assessment report completed in the last 12 months, as well as infants/young toddlers.
infant milestone assessment
Sometimes babies skip milestones, or are delayed in reaching them. If you have concerns about your baby’s gross and fine motor development, a milestone assessment evaluates their current stages of development, atypical vs. typical motor patterns, and primitive reflexes. Using our functional OT approach, we then provide you with new ways to play with your baby based around movement, mobility, and positioning strategies.
