Understanding ADHD and How OT Can Help

Children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) often experience challenges with focus, attention, emotional regulation, and executive functioning. At Leaps and Bounds, our specialised OT for ADHD are designed to help children develop the skills they need to manage these difficulties in school, at home, and in social settings.

Our occupational therapists use evidence-based approaches to improve attention, sensory processing, and daily routines, supporting each child’s ability to participate fully in the classroom and community.

Our Approach to ADHD OT

Every child with ADHD is unique, which is why our ADHD OT programs are tailored to meet each child’s strengths, goals, and challenges. We focus on building practical life skills and improving emotional regulation through engaging, play-based therapy.
