About this listen

In this episode of In Session, we’re exploring the powerful connection between occupational therapy and counseling — and how working together can support a child’s whole development. Join Westside’s Director of Counseling, McKenna Henning, LCPC, NCC, and Director of Occupational Therapy, Ali McCarrell, MOT, OTR/L, as they discuss how emotional regulation, sensory processing, and everyday functional skills overlap in meaningful ways. From play-based therapy to coping strategies and self-expression, this episode dives into how OT and counseling together help children build resilience, confidence, and balance in both body and mind.
