Get to know me

As a licensed occupational therapy practitioner, I bring over 16 years of diverse pediatric-based experience across various geographical regions. My expertise encompasses a wide spectrum of pediatric practice settings, including acute hospital, NICU, school-based, early intervention, and home-based services. Central to my practice is the recognition of the crucial role that mental health plays in the lives of children and their families/caregivers.

I firmly believe in the power of collaboration between OT and families, understanding that parents are the foremost experts on their children. In my approach, I serve as a guide, recognizing that the best outcomes emerge when families and therapists work together. My mantra is "client-driven, therapist-directed," emphasizing a partnership where you and your child are the primary drivers of the journey, with my guidance and support.

Beyond my professional role at Kinspire, I also serve as a professor within an OT program, balancing my career with my roles as a wife and a mother of five, along with several furry friends. In my leisure time, I indulge in fiber crafts such as crochet and sewing.

I hold a deep belief in the boundless possibilities that lie within you and your child. It is a privilege to be a part of your journey, and I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to work alongside you as we navigate towards growth and success.

Other Interests

Outside of my professional and clinical work, I love to engage in fiber crafting, including sewing and crochet. I find joy in working with my hands and creating something tangible and beautiful. Additionally, I enjoy working in my yard and engaging in yoga when I'm able.

"Kinspire allows me to serve families and utilize collaboration in real time and across the country to help them reach the outcomes they desire for them and their children."
