What to expect at a first session
Sensory processing
What to expect at your child's first sensory processing occupational therapy session
Your child's first appointment will usually last 45 minutes to an hour. The occupational therapist will spend time getting to know your child and understanding their sensory experiences in everyday life.
The therapist typically observes how your child responds to different sensory inputs—like sounds, textures, movement, and touch. They may use informal activities or structured assessments to understand your child's sensory preferences and challenges.
Bring along any relevant information, such as your child's medical history, previous assessments, and notes about sensory concerns you've noticed at home or school.
After the session, the therapist will discuss their observations with you and explain what they've noticed. They'll outline next steps, which might include further sessions, strategies to try at home, or recommendations to discuss with your GP or other health professionals.
It's a good opportunity to ask questions and share what matters most to your family.
Handwriting
What to expect at your child's first handwriting occupational therapy session
Your child's first session usually lasts 45 to 60 minutes. The occupational therapist will chat with you about your concerns and your child's background, including their development and school experiences.
During the session, the therapist will observe how your child holds a pencil, their posture, and how they form letters. They may ask your child to complete some writing tasks or drawing activities. This helps them understand your child's current skills and any difficulties they're experiencing.
Bring along any school reports, previous assessments, or notes about your concerns. It's helpful to have examples of your child's writing too.
After the session, the therapist will discuss what they've observed and talk through next steps. This might include recommendations for home or school, or a plan for ongoing sessions. You'll receive a summary of the session in writing.
Remember, this first visit is about gathering information. Your therapist will work with you to support your child's handwriting development.
