Pediatric Occupational Therapy In Nature
Welcome to Empowering Roots Occupational Therapy.
I’m Gayle Vardakis, an occupational therapist in the Seacoast, New Hampshire area, offering therapy that nurtures children’s developmental growth through meaningful experiences.
Helping children grow and thrive, authentically.
At Empowering Roots Occupational Therapy, I support children’s growth through a holistic, playful, and child-led approach.
As a licensed occupational therapist, I combine evidence-based practices with the therapeutic benefits of nature, supporting each child and their family on a unique journey of growth and connection.
PEDIATRIC OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY SESSIONS
Nurturing growth through play
I provide mobile OT services across the Seacoast NH area. Each session is thoughtfully designed to nurture your child’s developmental growth. I partner closely with caregivers to extend progress beyond therapy sessions, helping children thrive at home, at school, and in everyday life.
My comprehensive therapeutic approach supports a broad range of developmental areas, including, but not limited to:
Fine motor skills
Gross motor skills
Sensory processing and regulation
Executive functioning
Social-emotional development
Through meaningful play and movement, sessions help children grow in confidence, independence, and everyday life skills.
Why nature matters
Nature is a powerful therapeutic partner. Outdoors, children explore, take healthy risks, and grow confidence, resilience, and life skills that take root.
