OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY PRACTICE HENRIETTE STAL
This is how occupational therapy works for your child
​
The first step is a detailed case history and assessment. Then I develop an individual, goal-oriented therapy that is appropriate for your child and his or her age. It is particularly important to me that the therapy is always related to everyday life and is holistic.

The family and social environment is part of the therapy
​
Children live in family and social relationships. These people have a great influence on the child. That is why I do not only work with the child, but also with the people who care for it. I keep in touch with other therapists (speech therapists, physiotherapists, psychologists, etc.) and with institutions such as kindergartens and schools.
My experience is that successful therapy is only possible through constructive cooperation between all of these people. In order for occupational therapy for children to be effective, regular conversations with the caregivers are important. Together we discuss the goals of the therapy, how it can be implemented in everyday life and how the caregivers can support the child.
Only then can occupational therapy have a positive effect.
Interdisciplinary collaboration
Collaboration with other professionals is very important to me and I am convinced that through exchange and cooperation, care is more holistic and sustainable.
I also work as a freelance occupational therapist in the Stuttgart children's and youth hospice in a large interdisciplinary team.
