Since 2010, I have been helping children improve their handwriting. My experience in a transdisciplinary therapy team from 1994-1995 gave me valuable insights into effective assessment and intervention programs for children's motor skills. This knowledge has profoundly influenced my approach to teaching and supporting children with reading, handwriting, and language challenges. I began tutoring in 2010 and have successfully worked with many children facing handwriting difficulties, including my own two children. Collaborating with occupational and vision therapists, I addressed their handwriting challenges and discovered the importance of integrating primitive reflexes. This led me to become certified in Reflex Integration Therapy through Play with Kokeb Macdonald. Now, I focus on helping children with handwriting issues, incorporating these specialized techniques into my therapeutic programs.

The very best part of being a pediatric therapist is seeing the smiles & weight lifted that happens when a child and his or her community feel like they’ve reached a new level of ability and peace! An OT for 15 years, I’ve always had a special love for connecting with families by learning personal interests and goals and empowering families to incorporate workable solutions via meaningful activities based on routines, goals and interests. I specialize in primitive reflexes, sensory integration, handwriting, emotional awareness/regulation, toilet training, and coordination and see kids of all ages. In addition to helping kiddos, my approach includes a specific and tailored plan for parents to guide and empower you with the tools needed for success. I love also collaborating with caregivers, teachers, coaches, and/or other service providers your child may have in his or her life. If we sound like a great fit I’d be honored to help you!
