5 Myths About Kids Who Struggle to Write (and What's Really Going On)

October is Learning Disabilities Awareness Month. A pediatric OT clears up five common myths about kids who find writing hard, and what actually helps.

Step 1 — Book Your Writing Assessment

A 45 minute virtual (video call) session together to discuss and get to know your child — how they write, what's hard, and why. Includes a parent interview and a written summary with my recommendation.

Step 2 — Get Your Recommendation

You'll receive a written summary with my specific recommendations — so you know exactly what your child needs and the best next step.

Step 3 — Start Your Handwriting Support Sessions

Choose the option that fits your child's needs, and begin building real, lasting skills. All handwriting sessions are held in person (1:1) in your home or at school — in Aventura & nearby areas.
