Frequently asked questions.

Getting Started

  • If your child avoids writing, tires quickly, has messy handwriting, or struggles with coordination tasks like using scissors, they may benefit from occupational therapy. A free screening is a great first step.

  • Handwriting plays a critical role in early childhood development. It not only enhances fine motor skills but also strengthens cognitive abilities like memory, attention, and learning. Research shows that writing by hand improves reading, spelling, and critical thinking skills, helping children process and retain information more effectively. Strong handwriting skills also build confidence and independence in the classroom, supporting academic success across all subjects.

Services

  • We offer handwriting tutoring and parent consultations, both tailored to your child’s needs. All sessions use evidence-based strategies and the Handwriting Without Tears curriculum.

  • A full assessment of your child’s fine motor and handwriting skills, a detailed report, and a Handwriting Without Tears workbook to support practice at home.

  • Our handwriting and fine motor therapy services are currently available at Arboro Empowered or through in-home visits.

    • Arboro Empowered: Located on Old Lake Jeanette Road in Greensboro, this welcoming space is designed to provide a comfortable and supportive environment for your child’s therapy sessions.
