This letter is designate skills that I can offer as an OT on a consultant basis:<\/p>

Hi, my name is Charlene Young, OT. I have done consulting via email and on the phone for the past 25 years.\u00a0 My primary focus with consulting to help parents or caregivers to increase functional abilities for the patient to the highest level possible.<\/p>

\u00a0Below you will find some examples of my work<\/p>

ADHD<\/strong>:\u00a0 Goals to increase focus to the highest level by dietary changes that help facilitate focus;<\/p>

Example: eliminating artificial color from the child\u2019s diet. A sensory diet that includes activities to facilitate focus.\u00a0 A sensory diet it based on activities not food<\/p>

Autism:<\/strong>\u00a0 First and foremost, help parents to meet the child\u2019s need by not correcting who the child presents to be as an individual. All children with Autism are different the spectrum is vast in nature:\u00a0 The child can be non-verbal all the way to having some degree of social interaction.<\/p>

In the case of Autism, we would also use a sensory diet to facilitate function in their personal environment. In the sensory realm there are three types of main sensory dysfunction.\u00a0 Sensory Seeking, Under-responsive and hyper sensitivity.\u00a0 I would determine the needs of the child and proceed to facilitate a plan of action to increase functional abilities.<\/p>

Bipolar:\u00a0 <\/strong>This is a disorder that is often missed by not referring to occupational therapy. A child with bipolar does not often understand why he has the behaviors he exhibits. Understanding a bipolar child is half the battle. They need sensory intervention therapeutic interventions similar to Autistic population. Helping parents understand where the brain has a misfire will help them understand how to help this population.\u00a0 The temporal lobe is often the main area of dysfunction.<\/p>

I have a brief assessment that will help to determine the course of action for these patients and many others with disabilities.<\/p>

Please note the list of diagnosis that I can give consultative advice regarding increasing function.<\/p>

Autism, ADHD. Bipolar, Downs Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, <\/strong>mental retardation, Sensory processing Disorder, Home based modifications for elderly, neurological deficits, premature babies, Spina bifida, and developmental delays and many other diagnoses.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
