Proving Occupational Therapy services to children, youth, and families in the Okanagan

(Kelowna, West Kelowna, Lake Country, Vernon)

What is Occupational Therapy?

Occupational therapists are collaborative problem solvers. We help children, youth, and families with what they want and need to be able to do in a way that works for them.

We use meaningful activities (occupations) as both a way to learn new things and as goals in themselves.
