Occupational Therapy

Occupational Therapy promotes independence, enhances development, and facilitates the maturation of basic “daily living” skills. We provide individual, small group, and integrated services for Baltimore Lab School students as well as outpatient evaluation and treatment for children in the community. Our occupational therapists are specifically trained to identify the developmental weaknesses linked to learning disabilities.
