Glow & Grow provides a Parent- Child Centered Therapeutic Approach.
Services are under the OT Coaching Umbrella where therapists guide and support parents in understanding and meeting their child’s needs in the home and in the community. As occupational therapist's we have plenty of experience in the school system, and believe it is good work, especially in a team based setting. As a mother- daughter OT team, however, we see great importance in transferring therapeutic knowledge into the home and day to day lives of the parents and children we meet. We believe a parent knows their child best, and experiences their child from all different angles. By working together we can help parents develop an OT framework on how to understand their child's actions, needs, and behaviors, and develop confidence in identifying what they need and how to provide it.
*In addition to OT coaching, we are able to offer sensory gym therapeutic sessions based on location and availability (see "Individual Therapy Sessions" below).
Weekly or Bi-Weekly 30 min sessions or 45 min sessions *3 month minimum
A Glow & Grow Occupational Therapist will come to a location to observe their child. This initial assessment will help the therapist to determine areas of strength (glow), and challenge (grow). Together therapist and parent will create goals for 3 month intervention period.
Once or twice a week, the therapist and parent will hold phone or video conferences to reflect on the day to day experiences. These coaching sessions are geared to "teach" the parent how to see their child and their environment through an OT lens, and therefore develop their ability to support their child therapeutically.
At the end of the 3 month period, the Glow & Grow Occupational Therapist will come and observe the child in order to assess the child's progress towards goals made.
Glow & Grow provides individualized therapy sessions for all ages. We are dedicated to exploring and meeting the needs of all children through the therapeutic approaches that are best fit for them. In addition to our individual sessions, we also provide Occupational Therapy assessments and evaluations. See our areas of focus below.
