Here are questions we frequently get related to occupational therapy:

Occupational therapy (OT) helps people achieve independence in all areas of their lives by working on their cognitive, behavioral, physical, and motor skills. For children this can include working on daily activities such as getting dressed, brushing their teeth, playing with their peers, hand-eye coordination, handwriting, and positively dealing with anger and frustration.

You can find information about occupational therapy at The American Occupational Therapy Association at www.aota.org.
