Occupational Therapy for Teenagers

When a teenager exhibits challenging behavior, it's essential to communicate openly, set clear boundaries, and seek professional guidance. Consulting with a mental health professional or an occupational therapist can provide valuable insights and strategies for managing and addressing the underlying issues.

If your child struggles with daily activities, exhibits delays in motor skills or sensory processing issues, or faces challenges in school, it's advisable to consult an occupational therapist. A professional assessment can determine if occupational therapy would be beneficial for addressing specific needs.

In a high school, occupational therapy focuses on enhancing students' functional abilities for academic success. Therapists collaborate with educators to implement strategies, accommodations, and interventions that support students with motor skills, organization, and sensory processing challenges.
