Occupational Therapy (OT)
Occupational Therapy (OT)
The goal of recovery is your independence.
First button you fasten. First meal you cook. First drive. Your first day back at work. Occupational therapy starts with one question: What do you want to get back? We create a rehabilitation plan built around the everyday activities that matter most to you—whether that's caring for your family after suffering a stroke, returning to work after an injury, driving with confidence, or helping your child build skills for school and daily life. Our Occupational therapists collaborate closely with other rehabilitative specialists based on your needs, including Physical Therapy, Speech-Language Pathology, and physicians in Neurology, Physiatry, Orthopedics, Hand Surgeons, and Pediatrics. From the hospital to outpatient recovery, we help you develop skills, tools, and strategies to regain independence in the moments that’s most meaningful to you.
