Get to know me

I'm a licensed pediatric occupational therapist specializing in pelvic health with a focus in constipation, withholding, and day or nighttime leaking. Other practice areas of interest include sensory processing and interoception, nervous system regulation, sensory-based feeding, and reflex integration. One of the greatest gifts of being a pediatric OT is knowing that I am providing children and families with the tools for a lifetime of future success. My therapeutic style uses an encouraging and compassionate approach to help children and families understand their experiences and make improvements in their daily lives. I value a parent coaching model, recognizing the crucial role that caregivers play in the therapeutic process. By empowering parents with knowledge and practical strategies, I aim to ensure that my recommendations extend beyond the screen and make a lasting impact in the child's daily life.

Other Interests

When I'm not working, I fill my cup with family and friends. My greatest joy has been watching my daughter grow and develop in her first few years of life. I love a good yoga class or podcast, reality TV is my guilty pleasure, and coffee is my bladder irritant of choice! I also enjoy writing, for both education and entertainment, and would love to publish a book one day.
