Occupational Therapy in Prairie Village
Meeting Children’s Needs With Occupational Therapy
Help them make the most of their developmental years!
Fun Tools & Techniques to Engage Their Body & Brain
Occupational therapy in Prairie Village is an foundational approach to regulate stress and develop motor skills.
Our licensed therapists work one-on-one and in small groups with children using therapeutic props. We use the aerial hammock and research-backed activities to reduce anxiety, provide sensory input, and support their physical and emotional growth. Our goal for occupational therapy is that kids learn the necessary motor, sensory, and behavioral skills to graduate from occupational therapy with the skills to be able to handle whatever life throws their way!
Occupational Therapy Aerial Yoga Classes

Activities to reduce anxiety, provide sensory input, and support their physical and emotional growth is integrated into the small group classes. Therapy Classes are currently offered for anxiety and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. If you want to use insurance to pay for therapy classes an initial evaluation must be completed prior to the class. Other payment options include self-pay and using your health saving account.

Helpful Tips
- How do I know if my child might need occupational therapy?
-
If you notice that your child has trouble interacting with others or managing their emotions, or that they might have developmental delays, then occupational therapy may be a good fit for them. However, each child is different, so we recommend using our Program Match Tool or signing up for an initial assessment to see if it’s a good fit.
- If my child has special needs, can they enroll in aerial yoga classes, too?
-
There are certain behavioral objectives that a child has to meet for an aerial yoga class so that every student and staff member can have a safe and beneficial experience. Depending on your child’s special needs, they may have to stay in occupational therapy until their behavior meets the required expectations.
- What is the initial assessment process like?
-
The initial assessment measures problem behaviors, adaptive skills, sensory processing, and executive functioning. Once you book an assessment, we’ll ask you to complete an intake form. Once your form is received and reviewed, we will contact you via e-mail with verification of insurance and move forward with the assessment. It will be a comprehensive evaluation consisting of standardized testing, observations, reflex evaluation, and parent-report measures. A meeting is scheduled afterward for a complete review of our findings.
