Ideas at Play: An Occupational Therapy (OT) Podcast Ep. 56 OT Interventions for Autistic Children (20 Strategies!)
Evidence-based OT for autism can feel overwhelming—but what if you had a clear menu of strategies to choose from? In this episode, we break down a study that identified 20 treatment components pediatric OTs use with autistic children and organized them into six major categories. Learn how this framework can guide your therapy sessions and strengthen your documentation.
We share our own thoughts in the Research Review and encourage you to read the original article too.
