Building Skills, Confidence, and Independence

What Is Pediatric OT?

Our therapeutic methods are play-based with an emphasis on developmental intervention. We help children work towards a variety of goals, including motor milestones, self-care skills like feeding, dressing and grooming, play, fine motor activities including handwriting and cutting, sensory and emotional regulation. We work closely with families to identify specific goals and provide education to best meet your child’s needs. 

Infant
Feeding

Is your little one struggling to gain weight or having issues latching properly while breastfeeding? Maybe you’re experiencing bottle refusal or are finding introducing solids especially challenging. Whether your child has a tongue tie, lip tie, cheek tie or some other feeding challenge, OT can help.

Picky
Eating

Do your child’s eating habits need professional support? Our therapists are trained in SOS (Sequential Oral Sensory) trained. We can support your child’s eating needs with a whole-child approach, reviewing their oral and motor function as well as behavioral and environmental impacts on eating.

Delayed Milestones

Every child hits milestones at their own pace. But if you or your pediatrician are concerned about delayed milestones, OT support is a great place to start. Whether your child has a developmental diagnosis or just needs a little push, our occupational therapists can provide key support.

Behavioral Issues

Screaming, tantrums, hitting, biting or kicking – what looks like behavioral issues is often time a sign of an unmet sensory need or a lack of appropriate coping skills. A pediatric occupational therapist can help you and your child understand their triggers and find ways to proactively manage behavior.

ADHD, AUTISM & SENSORY PROCESSING

Maybe your child is easily over-stimulated or bothered by certain sensory inputs. Or maybe you have a little sensory-seeker on your hand, constantly running, jumping, climbing and more. We can help you understand and fulfill your child’s sensory needs.

Functional Skills

Every parent of young kids has some challenges getting them to brush their teeth, take a bath or use the toilet. But if your child is having an especially hard time, then OT could be a good fit. Our therapists can work with your child in their natural environment to build, practice and apply key life skills.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about our New Hampshire occupational therapy services? Explore our FAQs below or contact us to learn more.

  • There’s not always a clear answer when it comes to whether OT is right for your child. For many of our families, their pediatrician or other doctor has recommended occupational therapy to them. Other times, a parent may simply feel like their child could use some additional support with sensory seeking, sensory processing, coordination or daily tasks.

    Either way, we always start with a thorough evaluation of your child. We won’t recommend OT services unless your child truly needs them.

  • It all starts with the evaluation. We’ll chat with you and any other caregivers to learn more about your child and we’ll ask for relevant medical records to ensure we’re up to date on your child’s current care. Then, we’ll schedule a time to engage with and observe your child directly, either in person or via a telehealth appointment.

    Once we’ve completed the evaluation, we’ll put together a treatment plan that is personalized to your child’s needs. We check in on progress regularly to ensure we’re always providing the support your child truly needs.

  • It depends! Our Stratham, NH occupational therapy clinic is open and ready for appointments. However, we also offer in-home, community-based and telehealth appointments to fit your lifestyle and your child’s needs.

    If your child is struggling with school-based tasks, for example, we can bring our services to their private school or daycare.

  • This depends on many factors. Some of our patients work with us throughout their childhood and teen years. Others only need OT support for a few months while working on very specific skills or building a sensory diet.

    When we evaluate your child and put together a personalized treatment plan, we’ll also identify goals to work toward during appointments. We’ll check on progress toward those goals regularly, so that you’re always in-the-know and your child is only receiving the support they need.

  • We certainly do our best! With options for clinic-based, in-home, community-based and telehealth appointments, we aim to help OT fit your family life.

    We are also open from 8am to 5pm each week day, allowing for early morning or after school appointment times.

  • It depends! While some of our patients do pay out of pocket for OT services, the majority use medical insurance to cover their therapy fees. In this case, typically only a co-pay is required for payment.

    Each insurance plan is unique, so be sure to check in with your insurance provider for more details.

  • We are proud to be New Hampshire occupational therapists that accept insurance. We want to make OT services as acceptable as possible.

    Currently, we accept the following insurance plans:

    NH Medicaid – New Hampshire Healthy Families, Wellsense, AmeriHealth Caritas, NH Medicaid

    Private Insurance – Anthem BCBS, Tuff, United HealthCare, ChampVA, Cigna, Harvard Pilgrim, Aetna

    Please note: We require a referral from your PCP before submitting services to insurance. To learn more about costs for our OT services in New Hampshire, contact our office today.

  • The best way to get started is to send us an email. We’ll have an initial conversation to learn more about your child, help you request a referral for our services from your child’s PCP and ask you to fill out some intake from.

    Once the paperwork is complete, we’ll submit to your insurance provider to ensure our work is covered. Once it is approved, we’ll complete an evaluation to know your child and your family a little better and determine our recommendations for occupational therapy services.

    After the evaluation, we’ll determine your child’s treatment plan and set an appointment schedule.
