At Sunny Day Therapy, we support children, teens, and adults with ADHD through occupational therapy that focuses on regulation, executive functioning, sensory processing, emotional wellbeing, and daily life success.
ADHD affects more than attention. It can impact organization, emotional regulation, transitions, sleep, body awareness, impulse control, motor planning, school participation, work performance, and everyday routines. Our approach looks at the whole person—not just symptoms.
Therapy is individualized, strengths-based, and designed to help each person better understand how their brain and body work together.
ADHD Occupational Therapy
Supporting attention, regulation, and everyday functioning
Occupational therapy for ADHD helps build practical skills for daily life while supporting the nervous system underneath behavior and attention challenges.
We focus on improving participation at home, school, work, and in the community through individualized strategies that support regulation, organization, and independence.
Therapy is collaborative, engaging, and adapted to each person’s strengths, interests, and developmental needs.
Executive Function Support
Building systems that work for the ADHD brain
Executive functioning impacts planning, organization, memory, time management, task initiation, and follow-through. Many individuals with ADHD know what they want to do but struggle with carrying it through consistently.
We help create realistic routines, visual systems, environmental supports, and practical strategies that reduce overwhelm and increase success.
The goal is not perfection—it is creating sustainable systems that improve daily functioning and confidence.
Emotional Regulation & Impulse Control
Understanding behavior through a nervous system lens
ADHD often affects emotional regulation just as much as attention. Frustration, shutdown, impulsivity, overwhelm, and emotional intensity can impact relationships and daily participation.
We help children and adults recognize body signals, identify triggers, and develop regulation strategies that support emotional awareness and flexibility.
As regulation improves, coping, communication, and self-confidence become stronger.
Sensory Processing & Nervous System Regulation
Helping the brain and body feel more organized
Many individuals with ADHD experience sensory processing differences that affect focus, movement, emotional regulation, and energy levels.
Therapy may include movement-based activities, sensory integration strategies, calming supports, and environmental modifications that help the nervous system feel more regulated and ready for participation.
When sensory needs are supported, attention and engagement often improve naturally.
Attention, Focus & Transition Support
Improving participation across daily routines
Difficulty with transitions, sustained attention, and shifting between tasks can create stress throughout the day. We work on building routines and supports that improve predictability and reduce frustration.
This may include visual schedules, movement breaks, timing systems, environmental adjustments, and structured strategies that support smoother transitions and better task completion.
Small supports can create meaningful improvements in daily life.
Motor Planning, Coordination & Body Awareness
Supporting movement efficiency and confidence
ADHD can impact coordination, posture, body awareness, handwriting, and motor planning skills. Some children and adults may appear clumsy, avoid physical tasks, or fatigue easily during movement-based activities.
We address these challenges through movement, strengthening, coordination activities, and functional task practice designed to improve efficiency and confidence.
As body awareness improves, participation in school, sports, work, and daily routines often becomes easier.
ADHD Support for School, Work & Daily Life
Helping individuals function more successfully in real environments
We support functional participation across academic, professional, and home environments. Therapy may focus on classroom supports, homework systems, workspace setup, routines, self-care, time management, or stress reduction.
Recommendations are practical, individualized, and designed to work in real life—not just in therapy sessions.
Our goal is to help individuals build tools they can carry into everyday situations with greater independence.
Parent Coaching & Family Support
Helping families better understand and support ADHD
Parents and caregivers play an important role in long-term success. We provide education, coaching, and practical strategies that support regulation, routines, communication, and daily functioning at home.
Support focuses on understanding ADHD through a developmental and nervous system lens rather than a behavior-only approach.
When families feel supported, children are better able to thrive.
