Understanding the Larchwood Approach

We use a nature-based or nature-loving approach. Most of our sessions take place outdoors. The forest is our clinic and we see kids in all types of weather. We love to work on sensory preferences, emotional regulation, and nature connection. This may not be the best fit for all families and kids so complete the below form and we will connect by phone to chat!

A Safe, Supportive Environment for Kids to be Themselves 

We assess each child’s current abilities, set goals based on the activities most important to them and their families, and develop a nature-based treatment plan. Our child-centred approach allows us to customize therapy activities to each special child. Our sessions take place outdoors in all types of weather. This gives us the opportunity to develop resilience, strengthen problem solving skills and experience a new environment. Sessions are rescheduled in extreme weather including thunder, lightning, high winds or poor visibility. We offer therapy at a number of locations in East and West Toronto. We do not provide home-based visits.

Parent Coaching

Meet with a Registered Occupational Therapist to engage in collaborative and supportive problem-solving, ask all of your questions, and seek practical advice for parenting neurodivergent kids! Sessions might focus on emotional regulation, family dynamics (for example, how do you meet everyone’s differing sensory needs?), sensory processing, executive functioning, school accommodations, etc. Parent Coaching is also a great option for families looking to learn more about the Powerfully You approach to be able to incorporate it at home! Sessions can take place virtually or in-person at a local park. Contact us to see if this would be the right fit!
