An Occupational Therapy Intervention Programme to Support Executive Functions in Everyday Life
Drawing on my many years of professional experience and extensive continuing education, I provide specialised occupational therapy for children aged 6 to 12. My work focuses on difficulties with attention, planning, self-regulation and emotional regulation that affect meaningful everyday activities and a child's independence.
With FOKUS⁺, I have developed a structured occupational therapy intervention programme consisting of 27 progressive sessions. It combines theoretically grounded, evidence-informed approaches to supporting executive functions with strategies for emotional regulation, body awareness, self-awareness and individualised environmental adaptations.
The aim is to help children recognise their strengths, better understand their challenges and develop practical strategies for everyday life. The focus is on self-efficacy, the ability to engage successfully in meaningful activities, and participation in family life, school and leisure activities.
A central element of FOKUS⁺ is close collaboration with parents and, where appropriate and mutually agreed, with the school. Strategies and support measures are explored, reflected upon and individually adapted in real-life situations.
Scientific Collaboration and Ongoing Development
Dr. Jennifer Gewinner is a co-author of the professional textbook Fokus⁺ – Das Praxis-Fachbuch and contributes to the scientific development of the occupational therapy intervention programme as a scientific and methodological collaborator.
She brings her academic background and expertise in behavioural economics to the professional and scientific examination of FOKUS⁺. She is also involved in the methodological planning, data analysis and scientific interpretation of the programme-specific evaluation.
