Occupational therapy.
The goal of occupational therapy (OT) is to help individuals of all ages build the skills they need to participate in everyday activities with confidence and independence. Whether it's self-care, school tasks, play, or community engagement, North Star’s skilled occupational therapists (OTs) assess and support motor, sensory, and regulation skills that impact daily life. Through a strengths-based, functional approach, OT helps individuals succeed in learning, social interactions, and overall well-being.

Occupational therapy evaluations.
North Star provides strengths-based, client-centered evaluations to understand an individual’s unique way of engaging with daily activities. Our neuroaffirming occupational therapists assess sensory processing, motor coordination, self-care skills, and executive functioning to support meaningful participation at home, school, or in the community.
An initial OT evaluation helps to:
* Identify strengths and areas of support
* Determine if North Star’s services align with your needs
* Provide recommendations tailored to the individual
* Collaborate on therapy goals that promote independence and well-being

Your occupational therapist will use movement, hands-on activities, and everyday tools to engage clients while collaborating with parents or caregivers to support skills in real-life settings.
