What pediatric OT assessments do we provide?
We met Michaelene just a couple of days ago. Brought our son in for his first OT evaluation. Even after that first session I was blown away and I'm confident that Michaelene is absolutely going to be able to help us understand our son more, help him become aware of the "superpowers" that he possesses; how to take ownership of them, how to utilize them.... and the appropriate times to do so. I'm so excited to see where this relationship is headed. Thank you! - Tara K.

The Evaluation Process
In order to dispense any benefits or coverage, most insurance companies require their members to have a prescription from a doctor to receive OT services & an evaluation to build a plan of care. We always recommend that if you have not been evaluated in the past six months to go ahead and schedule an evaluation.

We all start somewhere, and to be honest, most of our clients come to us knowing next to nothing about OT.
So, just in case you can relate, we created a guide that will help you understand a little bit more about OT (and how it can help your child), and set you up for OT success by answering some FAQs.
We also talk about insurance, so you are going to want to snag your copy!
