Genevieve Engleman is an Occupational Therapist providing therapeutic support, built upon empathy, compassion and non-judgmental consideration of everyone's unique situations in life. Her private virtual practice (TheRemoteOT.com) offers affordable, client centered, custom treatment plans which span across the lifespan from the NICU to geriatric populations and every age in between. She is a real nerd at heart and loves expanding her knowledge through the completion of way too many continuing education courses to stay abreast of all the latest intervention strategies and most recent research and has achieved specialty recognition from NBCOT in pediatrics and orthopedics for her studies. Genevieve comes from a vast background in the healthcare system from Miami to Maryland and previously served as the Clinical Executive Associate for a large statewide practice in Rhode Island. She is originally from Canada and believes quality healthcare is a human right and structures her private practice to prevent cost from ever being a barrier to quality healthcare. She enjoys attending bluegrass and folk music festivals with her husband, Thomas, and three children Hank, Beau & Eden.
What is Occupational Therapy?
Occupational therapy is the only profession that helps people across the lifespan to do the things they want and need to do through the therapeutic use of daily activities (occupations).
Occupational therapy practitioners enable people of all ages to live life to its fullest by helping them promote health, and prevent—or live better with—injury, illness, or disability.
Common occupational therapy interventions include helping children with disabilities to participate fully in school and social situations, helping people recovering from injury to regain skills, and providing supports for older adults experiencing physical and cognitive changes. Occupational therapy services typically include:- an individualized evaluation, during which the client/family and occupational therapist determine the person’s goals,
- customized intervention to improve the person’s ability to perform daily activities and reach the goals, and
- an outcomes evaluation to ensure that the goals are being met and/or make changes to the intervention plan.
Occupational therapy practitioners have a holistic perspective, in which the focus is on adapting the environment and/or task to fit the person, and the person is an integral part of the therapy team. It is an evidence-based practice deeply rooted in science (AOTA.org).
When might a child need OT?- Delay in fine or gross motor milestones (rolling, sitting, crawling, feeding, etc.)
- Bilateral coordination struggles (cutting, handwriting, dressing)
- Balance (clumsy) or decreased hand-eye coordination
- Sensitivities to touch, noise, smell, light, and/or movement
- Abnormal postures or positioning (W-sitting on the floor, slouching in a chair, always propped with upper extremity to provide support)
- Seeking of rough housing or constant movement
- Challenges with sibling interactions or social skills with peers
- Challenges with attention to tasks or following directions
With internet access and free videoconferencing software, a highly-qualified occupational therapist is just a click away to visit your child virtually at home or in the classroom.
