Occupational Therapy
At CST Academy, our Occupational Therapy (OT) services are meticulously designed to foster holistic development, ensuring each child reaches their fullest potential. By addressing various aspects of development, our dedicated occupational therapists empower children to navigate their world with confidence and independence.
Empowering Your Child Through Holistic Development
Occupational Therapy at CST Academy is more than just therapy; it's a journey towards independence, confidence, and success. Our experienced pediatric occupational therapists work closely with each child and their family to develop and enhance the skills necessary for daily living and learning. Through a personalized, evidence-based approach, we address challenges in gross motor, fine motor, visual motor, sensory processing, and more, enabling children to participate fully in home, school, and community life.
Occupational Therapy Services We Provide
Gross Motor Skills
We focus on developing the foundational skills needed for activities like running, jumping, and climbing, ensuring children can actively participate in play and gross motor activities with their peers.
Fine Motor Skills
Our therapists work to refine dexterity, hand-eye coordination, and manipulation skills, essential to independently engage in their home and academic environments.
Visual Motor Integration
We help children develop the skills necessary to engage in age appropriate activities that require effective coordination between the visual and motor aspects of the child’s brain. These activities include but are not limited to reading, writing, puzzles and cutting.
Sensory Processing
Our team helps children explore their senses in a safe environment, learning how to organize sensory information for optimal engagement and participation.
Self-Care & Daily Living
From dressing to feeding, we teach practical skills that promote independence in daily routines, enhancing the child’s ability to care for themselves.
Visual Perceptual Skills
We develop the ability to interpret and use visual information effectively, supporting academic and play skills necessary to participate in their environment independently.

"After almost 2 years our son’s time at CST Academy has come to an end. The preschool program has done wonders for him. Ms Jaclyn is such a warm, kind and patient teacher. She and my son’s OT (Ms. Nikki) and ST (Ms. Erika) worked together to ensure he was meeting all of his goals. The level of collaboration between all therapies shows how dedicated they are to helping your child reach their full potential. They have all made such an impact on him, it’s amazing to see the changes since he started there. He has blossomed into a strong, confident boy who is more than prepared to start his new school in a few weeks. We will always fondly remember our time at CST Academy. Can’t recommend them enough!"
"I worked with CST Academy over a period of about 10 months. They are absolutely incredible! I also referred a friend to their program and the progress his child made just blew him away! Usually, I don’t write reviews unless I feel strongly compelled one way or the other, and in this case I do! You cannot go wrong here. I would not trust my children to anyone else. Call them and see for yourself. I have seen other programs and there is just no comparison."
