DS7 has had OT both privately and through the school and I would say that OT has made permanent changes, not temporary. In fact, he is currently about to start a new private OT so he can learn "the jobs and coping skills of a 7 year old" since he has been relying on strategies for coping that he learned as a 3 year old! (4 years seems pretty permanent!) His school OT does handwriting work/fine motor skills, but the private OT seems to focus on sensory/behavior. Our insurance DOES cover OT (but does not cover speech)...I can't figure out insurance! Nan
