TAILORED GUIDANCE FOR CHILDREN

Therapy that nurtures your child and your family connection

Pediatric Occupational Therapy for Neurodivergent, Anxious, and Highly Sensitive Kids in Guelph

Helping kids with big feelings to thrive at home, at school, and beyond.

You know better than anyone the innate gifts that your child brings to the world. But you also know that troubles with school, emotions, anxiety, or focus get in the way of their true potential shining through.

And while you can consult online resources, doctors, and family (and probably have already), the amount of information out there is overwhelming.

We understand the importance of having a custom plan for your child that reflects their unique needs. Our personalized occupational therapy sessions empower them to understand their emotions, regulate their energy, and exceed expectations in a supportive environment!

We help your child experience daily life with more confidence, through Occupational Therapy sessions that combine cognitive and sensory-based strategies.

Our evidence-based approach is grounded in strengths, relationships, and connections to support neurodivergent, anxious, and highly sensitive children.

As a parent, our therapy sessions will look like play from the outside: movement, games, books... But each play-based learning activity is chosen strategically to work towards your child's goals!

Your child will learn new skills like:

  • How to better understand emotions 

  • Improved communication and social skills

  • Coping with anxiety or dealing with meltdowns

  • And more

  • Proven strategies that help to enhance emotional regulation and overall well-being

  • Collaboration with schools/other professionals involved in your child's care to ensure consistent support

LEARNING IN A CALM, ENGAGING ENVIRONMENT 

Individual Nature-based Sessions

In the outdoors, children are free to explore and play while learning new skills in a way that is naturally supportive of the therapy process! And the best part? It doesn’t feel like therapy at all!

These sessions promote emotional regulation, sensory processing, and other skills so your child can learn to participate in daily life with ease.

Includes everything in a regular 1:1 Therapy Session, PLUS:

  • Integration of sensory-rich activities, like playing with natural materials, and connection with the environment to promote a sense of calm and curiosity

  • Combination of proven interventions with the therapeutic benefits of the outdoors

Cost per 50-minute session:
