Discovering Community Pediatric Therapy

Who I am

Hi, I’m Juliette and I am a registered occupational therapist! I have worked with many different school districts and families. I believe in child-led therapy working as a team of family, therapist, and child to promote increased quality of life and positive outcomes. I believe in connection before intervention and focus on building therapeutic rapport. Learning happens when the nervous system is calm! I’d love to help support your child and family with play-based therapy! 💗

pediatric occupational therapy

Occupational therapy practitioners work with children, youth, and their families, caregivers, and teachers to promote active participation in activities or occupations that are meaningful to them.

Occupation refers to activities that support the health, well-being, and development of an individual

(American Occupational Therapy Association, 2014).

Ages

Occupational therapy practitioners work with children of all ages and abilities through the habilitation and rehabilitation process.

For children and youth, occupations are activities that enable them to learn and develop life skills (e.g., preschool and school activities), be creative and/ or derive enjoyment (e.g., play), and thrive (e.g., self-care and relationships with others) as both a means and an end.

(American Occupational Therapy Association, 2014).

collaboration

Occupational therapy practitioners collaborate with parents/caregivers and other professionals to identify and meet the needs of children experiencing delays or challenges in development; identifying and modifying or compensating for barriers that interfere with, restrict, or inhibit functional performance; teaching and modeling skills and strategies to children, their families, and other adults in their environments to extend therapeutic intervention to all aspects of daily life tasks; and adapting activities, materials, and environmental conditions so children can participate under different conditions and in various settings (e.g., home, school, sports, community programs).
