ADULT OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY

Sensible Rehab pediatric therapists focus on promoting growth and development as well as supporting the family and caregivers with education. Occupational therapists focus on your needs and goals to maximize overall independence, success, and function. Occupational therapy can help adults improve their cognitive, physical, sensory, and motor skills and enhance their self-esteem and sense of accomplishment. An occupational therapist will evaluate the individual with the help and support of caregivers and families, develop individualized goals that address the current concerns that are impeding the individual’s overall participation in everyday life, and develop a treatment plan to optimize success and allow you to be as independent as possible.
