About
I have 10+ years experience as a pediatric occupational therapist, where I provided services for children with a wide range of needs. I specialize in supporting children with executive functioning challenges, coordination and motor planning delays, developmental delays, handwriting difficulties, eye-hand coordination challenges, sensory processing differences, self-regulation, and social skills development. My advanced training includes Sensory Integration Theory and DIR/Floortime. I hold certification in Handwriting Without Tears, to help support children with handwriting difficulties. I meet children where they are, using a child-led approach and building trust through play.
