Ms. Preethi Shankar, Occupational Therapist, shares her views on, How occupational therapy can help autistic children.

Occupational therapy (OT) focuses on helping people with sensory, physical or cognitive disabilities and become as independent as possible in different aspects of life. OT can help kids with disabilities improve physical, cognitive, sensory or motor skills and enhance their sense of confidence and self-esteem.

For children with autism, OT program focuses on play skills, learning strategies, and self-care. It can also help to manage sensory issues.
