About Us

---

Online OTs is an occupational therapy practice based out of Boston, Massachusetts that utilizes telehealth to reach patients across New  England. We specialize in helping children and adults manage a wide variety of vocal and motor tics. Our sessions are held  in private homes, schools, playgrounds, workplaces, and anywhere else wi-fi is available. The family coaching model we use enables carryover to be effective and based on present needs at home and in the community. Online OT's clinicians are certified in a treatment method called Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics, aka CBIT. This technique includes specific actions to physically block both simple and complex tics. We also share techniques to recognize and reduce triggers that lead to an increase of tics. With frequent practice, CBIT often helps to reduce the intensity and frequency of tics making it easier to perform day to day activities. CBIT is backed by the Tourette Association of America and extensive medical research. To decide if CBIT is right for you or a family member at this time, reach out to a neurologist or request a phone consultation with one of our occupational therapists.

Online OTs is affiliated with UMass, MGH, Boston Children's Hospital, Tufts, and practices throughout MA, NH, VT, and ME.
