Y'all, I have been overwhelmed with gratitude today as I have had past, current, and future families reach out to me today. If you are a past or current patient and feel so inclined to leave us a google review I would really appreciate it. It helps those families who aren't on social media to have greater confidence in our services by reading others' positive experiences. Being a mother myself, I understand how hard it is to trust someone new with your child. Google reviews have helped me choose a provider for myself and my children on multiple occasions. I opened this clinic (almost 5 years ago!) to serve the children in our area, and I honestly couldn't do it without all the support I've already been given.

Hi neighbors! 👋 As an occupational therapist (OT), I often get asked what OT is and how it can benefit children. Here's a simple explanation to help you better understand:

**What is OT?**
Occupational Therapy helps people of all ages develop the skills they need to succeed in their daily activities (or "occupations"). For children, these "occupations" include playing, learning, socializing, and becoming more independent in self-care.

**How do you know if your child could benefit from OT?**
Here are some clues that OT might help your little one:

🎨 Struggles with fine motor activities like coloring, cutting with scissors, or tying their shoes
🏃 Trouble with big movements like running, jumping, or keeping their balance on the playground
🛝 Challenges with sensory experiences, such as avoiding certain textures, loud sounds, or seeking lots of movement
🧩 Difficulty focusing, following directions, or managing big emotions
🍼 Feeding challenges, like picky eating, refusing new textures, or difficulty chewing/swallowing
🎈 Delays in hitting milestones like crawling, walking, or using utensils

The great news? Most insurances will cover OT services 100%! This means your child could get the support they need without worrying about big out-of-pocket costs.

OT can make a big difference by using fun, customized activities to build confidence and help your child thrive!

If you’d like to learn more or have questions about how OT could help your child, feel free to reach out or comment below. Let’s work together to help our kiddos shine! 🌟

Unfortunately the therapy clinic flooded. We are working diligently to get the carpet ripped out and everything sanitized so this can be a safe space again for your children. We are hoping to be able to open again next week. In the meantime, we can do home visits, Telehealth visits, or even meet at the park for therapy! We have tried to contact all patients, but we know many of you are still without cell service. Please message us through Facebook if you have not been contacted yet.

There is so much power in play. MCPT's motto is "learning through play". This quote explains one of the reasons why play is so important. Play is also the main way therapists are able to establish a trusting relationship with children. Play in therapy allows a child to enhance learning readiness, attention span, and problem solving skills.

A child's brain is naturally curious, and the best way to explore that curiosity is through play! It helps little brains grow big and strong!

We're so grateful to be able to provide such valuable services to the children of our community, but Mrs. Courtney can't do it all on her own. So...we're hiring!

MCPT is looking to hire a SLP and a COTA. Please PM or text the office for more info.
