I am a pediatric occupational therapist providing services for children with exceptional abilities and injuries. I help children improve their abilities in order to function independently and functionally within their environments such as home, school, community, and sports/extracurricular activities. I am passionate about serving children ages 0-21 with exceptional abilities and injuries in order to function in their best ability independently by providing therapeutic strategies and concepts. Some of the services I provide are kid’s yoga, handwriting, fine motor development, primitive reflex sessions, feeding therapy, kinesio-taping, sensory-integration, and community involvement/collaboration.

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!
