Occupational Therapy Consultation & Virtual Evaluations
Wondering if your child could benefit from OT or just don’t know where to start?
Matt offers comprehensive virtual occupational therapy consultations to help families like yours move forward with clarity, support, and action.
What You’ll Get
- Virtual OT Evaluation: We begin by gathering information through intake forms and developmental screening tools to understand your child’s strengths, challenges, and what goals matter most to you.
- Personalized Plan & Resources: Based on the evaluation, you’ll receive a customized resource list (activities you can try at home), environmental or routine-based strategies, and recommended next steps.
- Support While You Wait: If there’s a wait for services or assessment, Matt will equip you with tools you can start right away — so progress isn’t delayed.
- Follow-Up Support Options: After the initial consult, you can schedule check-ins to refine the plan, problem-solve, or adjust approaches as your child grows.
How It Works
1. Complete an online intake (background, developmental screening, caregiver concerns)
2. Matt reviews your materials and may ask clarifying questions
3. Schedule a video or phone call over the weekend to discuss what’s happening, what’s working, and what could help
4. Deliver a summarized report: what’s going well, what areas to focus on, immediate strategies, and longer-term goals
5. Optionally schedule follow-ups and coaching to adjust strategies and track progress
Why This Helps
- Get clarity and direction before or besides traditional OT services
- Begin interventions right away rather than waiting passively
- Feel empowered with tools, skills, and understanding
- Address daily routines, school, play, and home life in a way that fits your family
Investment & Access
Intake Forms & Screeners
Families receive structured forms to complete, including developmental screeners, background questionnaires, and caregiver concerns checklists. These help Matt understand your child’s strengths, daily routines, and areas of need before the consultation.
Video Submissions
Depending on your child’s needs, you may be asked to record short videos of your child performing everyday tasks (like playing, eating, drawing, or moving through the home). These real-life clips give Matt a clearer picture of your child’s motor skills, sensory responses, and daily challenges — without requiring travel.
Scope of Service
Matt is not a physician and does not provide medical diagnoses. Instead, he offers expert guidance as an occupational therapist to help identify potential areas of concern, point out patterns that may benefit from formal OT services, and equip families with strategies they can use right away. This makes the consultation a valuable first step in determining whether further in-person assessment is needed.
What You’ll Walk Away With
- A summary of observations from your intake forms and videos
- A resource list tailored to your child (activities, environmental strategies, and next steps)
- Guidance on what to prioritize now and how to track progress over time
- Clarity on whether to pursue a full evaluation through school or medical providers
