Social and emotional skills

An OT can help your child develop the emotional and social skills they need to build and sustain healthy relationships.

Experiencing a range of emotions is a normal part of life and learning how to manage these appropriately is an important skill.

 

So how can Blossom Rural support your child in these areas?

An OT can help parents better to support their child with their behavioural and emotional development and can also work with your child to develop the skills they need for healthy emotional regulation and social relationships, including:

  • Understanding and identifying feelings in self and others

  • Understanding what causes their feelings

  • Learning tools they can use to work through feelings

  • Learning how to join in on play and handle rejection
