Our cozy, home-based clinic, nestled in beautiful Modjeska Canyon, is conveniently located only minutes from urban areas of southeast Orange County. "Hinterland," as we lovingly call it, is a hidden gem, surrounded by nature, fresh air, and mountains, where families can get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life and find rest and peace during their child's occupational therapy session. Depending on the needs of the child and family, "Canyon Therapy" may include time at Hinterland addressing foundational sensory, motor, and self-regulation goals through our specially designed, sensory integrative clinic and multisensory snoezelen rooms, or learning about nutrition while gardening and picking fruit from our orchard, or going on an adventure exploring at a nearby bird sanctuary and nature center. In addition to "Canyon Therapy," we also offer sessions in your home and out in the community in order to work on transference of skills to all areas and environments of importance to you and your family. Building healthier, happier, more hope-filled lives "together" is not only about the therapist-family relationship, but also about building community among families. Therefore, Canyons to the Sea also hosts a variety of music and movement, support, and recreational group activities and programs at various locations throughout Orange County. Be it in Hinterland, in your home, a park, or the beach, Canyons to the Sea OT is here to help build healthier, happier, and more hope-filled lives...together!
