The Role of Occupational Therapy in Autism
Sensory processing differences are a core aspect of the autistic experience. Occupational Therapy (OT) helps individuals understand their sensory needs, develop motor planning, and build fine and gross motor skills. At eMbrace, we focus on helping clients regulate their bodies so they can comfortably engage in daily life.
Key Focus Areas of Occupational Therapy
-
Sensory Integration: Using specialized equipment (swings, ball pools) to help regulate sensory responses.

Motor Coordination: Building core strength, balance, bilateral coordination, and handwriting skills.
-
Daily Living Skills: Teaching independent routines like buttoning shirts, using utensils, and self-care.
