About
|
Specializing in pediatric OT services through a sensory, primitive reflexes and trauma informed lens. I am a licensed pediatric occupational therapist in Massachusetts and Connecticut. I have a vast amount of experience in the human services field as I was previously employed as a residential director for a non-profit residential agency servicing individuals served by the Department of Disabilities (DDS). In 2012 I graduated from Bay Path University with a master's degree in occupational therapy. Since that time, I have worked with individuals across the lifespan however more recently I dedicated my focus on the pediatric population. As a full-time occupational therapist, I work in a private day school evaluating and treating children of varying abilities. Throughout my time in the school setting, it has become apparent to me that there is a strong need for occupational therapy services that focus on underlying concerns related to sensory, primitive reflexes and self-regulation that do not always relate to academic concerns addressed in the school setting. Though school services can address some of these concerns, their time and resources are limited. Get A Grip Occupational Therapy would like to bridge that gap by offering a full array of services including home-based services that focus on individualized goals, groups for skill building, parent coaching, consultation with families, providers and schools, school-based contracts for evaluation and treatment. As previously mentioned, I specialize in Sensory Integration and Self-Regulation. I achieved a Sensory Integration Certification (#2475) through the University of Southern California and have completed advanced training in the Astronaut Certification; A Sound Activated Vestibular-Visual Protocol. I accept private pay clients with the ability to produce super bills. And insurance-based services to be discussed on a case-by-case basis as criteria for coverage varies by plans.
