Answer

What therapy helps a child learn to pretend play?

Pretend play is supported mainly through play-based occupational therapy and speech-language therapy that build imitation, sequencing and flexible thinking, with parent coaching to extend make-believe in daily play. AbilityScore® is part of Pinnacle’s developmental assessment. Diagnosis, where needed, requires an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.
