What to expect at a first session
Autism
What to expect at your child's first autism occupational therapy session
Your child's first session will usually take 60–90 minutes. The occupational therapist will chat with you about your child's daily routines, strengths, and areas where they find things tricky—like getting dressed, eating, or playing.
The therapist will observe how your child moves, interacts with toys and objects, and responds to different activities. They're looking at things like coordination, sensory preferences, and how your child manages everyday tasks.
Bring any relevant documents, such as school reports or previous assessments, along with details about your child's medical history.
After the session, the therapist will discuss what they've noticed and may suggest strategies or activities to try at home. They'll talk about next steps, which might include ongoing sessions or a tailored plan for your family.
Remember, this first visit is about getting to know your child in a relaxed way. It's okay to ask questions at any point.
ADHD
What to expect at your child's first ADHD occupational therapy session
The first session is usually about getting to know your child and understanding their needs. The occupational therapist will chat with you about your child's daily routines, school, home life, and any challenges they're facing.
The therapist will observe how your child moves, plays, and interacts. They might ask your child to do simple activities to see how they manage tasks like writing, organising, or focusing.
First sessions typically last 45 to 60 minutes. Bring any reports from school or previous health professionals, and a list of things you've noticed at home that concern you.
After the session, the therapist will discuss what they've observed and talk about next steps. This might include more sessions, strategies to try at home, or recommendations to discuss with your GP or other professionals.
Everyone's first session is a bit different, so it's fine to ask the therapist what they'll be doing and what you can expect.
Developmental delay
What to expect at your child's first developmental delay occupational therapy session
Your child's first session will help the therapist understand their current abilities and any areas where they might need support.
The therapist will usually spend time observing your child playing and completing everyday tasks like eating, dressing, or writing. They'll ask you questions about your child's development, routines at home, and any concerns you've noticed.
A first session typically lasts 45 minutes to an hour. Your child may feel a bit uncertain at first, which is completely normal.
Bring any relevant medical reports, your child's health records, and information about their daily routines. It helps to note any specific situations where your child struggles.
After the session, the therapist will discuss their observations with you and talk about next steps. This might include ongoing therapy, home activities, or recommendations to discuss with your GP or other professionals.
Remember, this is a chance to learn more about how your child learns and moves through the world.
