What occupational therapy helps with…

Occupational Therapy at MCC Therapies, LLC provides pediatric and adult OT services in and around Ashtabula County, helping individuals build the skills they need for daily life, school success, independence, and meaningful participation. Our clinical, strengths‑based, and neurodiversity‑affirming approach supports children, teens, and adults with sensory processing, executive functioning, motor development, emotional regulation, and daily living skills at home, school, work, and in the community.

Our services are child‑led and family‑centered, focusing on meaningful routines and real‑life goals that matter to your family. Whether your child needs help navigating sensory experiences, building motor skills, developing coping tools, or increasing independence, OT provides individualized, evidence‑based support designed to help them thrive. For teens and adults, we offer functional strategies for organization, task initiation, emotional regulation, and participation in daily routines.

MCC Therapies delivers OT through a collaborative, whole‑person model that includes sensory‑based interventions, executive functioning supports, self‑care skill development, and caregiver education. We work closely with families, schools, and community partners to ensure each client receives practical, functional strategies that improve participation and confidence across environments.

Occupational Therapy is a clinical service regulated by Ohio licensure. Occupational Therapy (OT) is separate from coaching and follows all state laws, documentation requirements, and professional standards.

With over a decade of pediatric experience, MCC Therapies, LLC. brings advanced clinical training and a deep commitment to neurodiversity‑affirming care. Our therapist is a Licensed Occupational Therapist in Ohio, an Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist, and a Certified Autism Specialist, with extensive background supporting sensory processing, regulation, motor development, and participation across home, school, and community settings.
As the Founder and Lead OT at MCC Therapies, she combines evidence‑based practice with a warm, family‑centered approach to help children build meaningful skills and thrive in their daily lives.
We provide Occupational Therapy to children and individuals with developmental disabilities, including students who receive JPSN services through their IEP.
OT sessions are offered in the community with virtual options available when clinically appropriate. We service Ashtabula, Lake, Geauga, and surrounding areas!
As a licensed Ohio provider, we serve families across Ashtabula County and surrounding areas, supporting meaningful participation in daily routines wherever your child learns, plays, and grows.
Our OT services are designed for individuals who experience challenges with:
- Sensory processing and sensory regulation
- Attention, focus, and task initiation
- Executive functioning (organization, planning, transitions)
- Emotional regulation and coping skills
- Daily living skills (self‑care, routines, independence)
- Fine motor and visual‑motor skills
- School participation and classroom accommodations
Our Occupational Therapy process begins with a comprehensive, functional evaluation that looks at strengths, daily routines, sensory needs, and areas where support is needed. This evaluation helps us understand how your child participates at home, school, and in the community so we can create an individualized, evidence‑based plan that reflects your family’s priorities.
From there, we develop a personalized treatment plan with meaningful, measurable goals designed to support participation, independence, and emotional well‑being. Therapy sessions are play‑based, functional, and neurodiversity‑affirming, using approaches that honor your child’s unique learning style and developmental profile.
Our OT sessions may include:
- Sensory‑based strategies and environmental supports
- Executive functioning routines and visual systems
- Emotional regulation tools and co‑regulation strategies
- Daily living skill practice to build independence
- Parent and caregiver coaching for carryover at home
- Collaboration with schools and providers to support classroom success
We provide regular progress updates and adjust goals as your child grows, develops new skills, or encounters new challenges. Each session includes practical strategies you can use between visits, ensuring your child continues making progress in real‑life routines.
MCC Therapies uses SimplePractice, a secure, HIPAA‑compliant electronic health record (EHR) system, to manage all Occupational Therapy documentation, communication, and scheduling. SimplePractice meets the privacy and security requirements outlined in HIPAA, the Ohio Occupational Therapy Practice Act, the Ohio Revised Code, and ODEW guidelines for students receiving services through programs such as the Jon Peterson Special Needs (JPSN) Scholarship. All clinical messaging, session notes, evaluations, progress reports, and documents are stored within the OT portal to ensure that every interaction remains confidential, traceable, and compliant with state and federal regulations.
To protect your child’s information and maintain clear separation between clinical OT and non‑clinical coaching, all communication related to Occupational Therapy must occur through the SimplePractice portal. This includes messaging, document sharing, scheduling, and accessing reports. Using the portal ensures that every piece of information is securely encrypted, properly documented, and maintained according to Ohio’s professional standards.
As required by Ohio law and professional OT regulations, clinical records must be retained for a minimum of six (6) years from the date of the last service, or longer when required for minors. For children, records are kept until the child reaches age 19, whichever period is longer. SimplePractice allows us to securely store, protect, and manage these records throughout the entire retention period.
Your child’s first Occupational Therapy visit is a comprehensive evaluation designed to help us understand their strengths, needs, and daily routines. During this appointment, we review your completed intake forms, discuss relevant medical documentation, and look at recent therapy reports or diagnoses you choose to share. The evaluation includes a review of body systems, functional skills, and areas of concern, along with a collaborative conversation about your family’s goals. Together, we identify priorities and begin shaping an individualized treatment plan that reflects your child’s unique needs.
Please bring any medical records, diagnostic reports, or previous therapy documentation that may support the evaluation process. The appointment typically lasts about 60 minutes.
After the evaluation, results and recommendations are shared through your secure SimplePractice portal. You’ll receive a notification when your evaluation is complete, along with access to all documents.
Follow‑up scheduling also occurs through the portal, ensuring that all communication, documentation, and next steps remain organized, secure, and fully compliant with Ohio OT practice standards.

- Ashtabula — OT support for sensory processing, emotional regulation, and daily living skills
