Occupational Therapy Consulting Services
As OT’s we work to problem-solve alongside our clients to support day to day challenges, or anything that disrupts your ability to participate in daily life. This can range from school, social interactions, work, home management, self-care, eating, sleep..whatever it is!
We are trained problem-solvers that often begins with identifying why something is challenging, then we can work on how we can build supportive strategies.
A Regulation-First Approach
OT’s specialize in understanding sensory & nervous system regulation needs! This is the absolute MOST important factor in being able to do all of the other things that are important to you. When new clients contact us they are often focused on things like executive functioning or social communication. None of these higher level skills are even accessible if we are not first regulated. This is why we start with a base of understanding your regulation needs & building healthy habits to meet those needs, then we can take a look at what else continues to be a challenge.
Due to nervous system differences, this type of regulation is much harder for autistic individuals or anyone with sensory differences! Our nervous system is like a computer’s operating system..if it’s not working, everything else is affected.
Emotional Regulation vs. Nervous System Regulation
When most people talk about regulation, they are referring to emotional regulation. Optimal nervous system regulation is necessary in order to be able to access our self-control, including our ability to control and regulate our emotions.
