At the Aspen Center, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to grow, learn, and thrive in their everyday routines. Our pediatric occupational therapy in Cary is designed to support children from birth to 16 years of age, helping them develop the foundational skills needed for independence at home, in school, and within their community. With a warm, child-centered environment and evidence-based therapy methods, we work closely with families to promote meaningful progress.

Pediatric occupational therapy focuses on improving a child’s ability to participate in daily tasks, from handwriting and dressing to emotional regulation and sensory processing. Many children face challenges that can make these activities feel overwhelming. Our therapists evaluate each child’s unique strengths and areas of need, then create personalized treatment plans to help them succeed step by step.
Children in Cary come to the Aspen Center for a variety of reasons, including fine motor delays, difficulty with coordination, challenges with grasp or handwriting, sensory sensitivities, and struggles with self-care skills. Whether a child needs help managing textures during meals, strengthening hand muscles for writing, or learning how to stay regulated in busy environments, our team provides targeted interventions to support growth.
Our therapy sessions are play-based and engaging, allowing children to develop skills in a fun, motivating setting. We incorporate hands-on activities, sensory tools, visual supports, and purposeful play to help children build coordination, attention, confidence, and independence. We also emphasize family collaboration, offering guidance and practical strategies parents can use at home and in everyday routines.
