À propos de Katie

Are there routines or skills you would love to see your child feel more comfortable and confident with? Maybe your child could use some extra support with certain challenges—whether that is at home, at school, or out in the community? As an occupational therapist, I am here to work alongside you and your child to set meaningful goals and create lasting change. I have experience working with children of all abilities and have specialized training in areas like Handwriting, Sensory Processing, Alternative Communication (including the Picture Exchange Communication System), Autism, Therapeutic Listening, Solution-Focused Coaching, and Neuro-Developmental Treatment. I always adapt my sessions to fit your child’s needs, making them engaging, fun, and focused on what matters most to your family. I welcome school-aged children and teens, and together we practice a variety of helpful skills—such as getting dressed, staying calm, paying attention, making friends, talking with others, staying organized, dealing with different sounds and feelings, writing, getting ready for school, and even trying new foods. Parent involvement is a big part of my approach. I believe that when we all work together, it helps your child use their new skills in every part of their life. When it makes sense, I can also offer home-based sessions so we can work on routines and challenges right where they happen. I understand that every child and family is unique, and I aim to create a warm, welcoming space where your child can learn and grow. Whether your child is learning to write their name, manage daily routines, or handle big emotions, I break down each goal into small, manageable steps to make progress feel achievable and rewarding. My goal is to help families feel confident and empowered as you work through challenges and celebrate progress together. I am passionate about creating positive changes that last beyond our sessions—so your child and family can enjoy more connection, fulfillment, and success in everyday life.
