[quote=Anonymous]Agree with PPs that a lot depends on the specific OT. Quite a bit also depends on a child's diagnosis and whether you reinforce what a child learns between sessions. Private OT was an enormous help for my son with apraxia/dyspraxia. He is doing far better than I ever could have hoped for. We began very early (maybe around age 2) and didn't take a break for about 5 years. Now that he's older, he just goes on and off as new issues pop up. He also has SPD - sensory seeking (diagnosed by developmental ped and county OT as a toddler) but our private OT didn't seem interested in treating it. My older child has significant fine motor issues due to a muscle weakness. He learned to tie his shoes, button, snap and type in OT. All were very helpful! However, even with OT, he will always struggle with fine motor. [/quote]
