Ground to Grow Occupational Therapy Inc.

Ground to Grow OT is a pediatric occupational therapy practice based in Torrance, California, serving children and families across the South Bay, including Palos Verdes, Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach, and Manhattan Beach. Its individualized, play-based approach helps children build confidence and develop skills for everyday life, with support tailored to each child’s strengths, interests, and developmental level.

Services include one-to-one occupational therapy for children of all developmental levels, addressing fine motor coordination, handwriting, self-care, sensory processing, emotional regulation, and motor development. DIR/Floortime offers relationship-centered support through play and connection. Feeding therapy, for children ages two and up, helps them explore foods, manage textures, and participate more comfortably at mealtimes. The practice also offers executive functioning and community support focused on planning, organization, self-monitoring, and completing tasks.

Founded around the work of occupational therapist Jackie Bresnahan, Ground to Grow OT emphasizes helping children feel safe, connected, and understood, while partnering with caregivers to support the whole family.
