Occupational therapy is not just for kids with disabilities, it can benefit a wide variety of children.We care about you and we care about us. In order to be as cautious as possible for our clients, our staff, and our own families, we are not seeing clients who are attending child care, preschool, camp, or school in person. We are not seeing kids who have siblings in child care, preschool, camp, or school, either. Those clients are encouraged to do telehealth sessions. At this time, new cases in Los Angeles county are increasing (currently at least 2640 new cases per day). Thank you for understanding.

No school opening waivers will be considered, L.A. County says, citing high COVID-19 rates

The County Department of Public Health, citing high local COVID-19 rates, said it will not grant elementary school reopening waivers until cases drop.Punishing a child for a stress response is harmful to their self-esteem and doesn’t work to change the behavior, anyway. We must help them to recognize when they are amping up to make any lasting change occur.
In our practice, advising parents about school choices is a strong passion of mine. This article illustrates many great points on how important our schools are and how to reopen safely. ✏️📚
