The Role of Occupational Therapists:

Occupational therapists play a vital role in autism treatment by offering sensory-based interventions tailored to the individual needs of the child. They help organize and regulate the child’s nervous system, which can reduce anxiety, improve attention, and enhance overall performance in daily activities.

If you suspect that your child or a loved one may have autism, seeking early intervention and a personalized treatment plan can make a significant difference in managing symptoms and improving quality of life.

At Reddy Care Physical and Occupational Therapy, we can get you set up with the right therapist for you. Call today to schedule a consultation!
