Every child with autism has their own strengths, interests and way of experiencing the world. Occupational therapy helps your child feel more comfortable in their body and surroundings, and builds the everyday skills that make home, school and play easier. Divya Place has worked with children with autism and their families in Nagpur for more than 15 years.
Parents usually come to us because daily life feels hard in one or more of these areas:
Many children with autism also benefit from speech therapy and special education. At Divya Place these are all under one roof, so your child's therapists plan together. Our post on five OT habits for parenting a child with autism is a good place to start at home.
Our clinic in Rahul Nagar, North Nagpur, is open Monday to Saturday, 10 am to 8 pm. It is also within easy reach for families from Wardha, Bhandara, Gondia, Chandrapur, Amravati and other towns in Vidarbha.
Hands-on sensory integration works best in person. For families who can't visit regularly, we offer online parent guidance and home programs, so you can keep building skills between clinic visits or from another city. Free videos are also on our YouTube channel.
Autism is not an illness to be cured. It is a different way of experiencing the world. Occupational therapy helps your child feel more comfortable, become more independent and take part more fully at home, at school and in play.
Many children with autism benefit from both, because they work on different skills. After the assessment we recommend only what your child needs and explain why.
The earlier the better, but it is never too late. We work with young children who have just been diagnosed, as well as school-age children and teenagers.
Sessions usually run weekly. Some children benefit from more frequent sessions for a period of time. We will discuss what makes sense for your child after the assessment.
Yes. Parent guidance is a core part of our work. Children make the most progress when the strategies from therapy are used every day at home.
Parent guidance and home programs work well online. Hands-on sensory integration therapy needs clinic visits, so families from outside Nagpur often combine occasional visits with online support.
