What to Expect From My Model of Care.
Where therapy comes to you, wherever your family engages in life!
At Kids on the POINT OT, I have a passion for providing family-centered and play-based care. My dedication to professional development on brain & body connections and sensory integration, along with long-standing community partnerships, allows me to use well-informed and individualized approaches to provide the highest quality of care for each child and family.
Occupational therapy services are provided to children across all ages, within the different environments where life happens! I support children and families to engage in all of the activities, or “occupations”, they want and need to do throughout life. I am committed to building a collaborative relationship with each family and meeting the child exactly where they are at, looking beyond behaviors and diagnoses, with curiosity and compassion.
What I Believe In.
1.cONNECTION always comes FIRST
With a sensory integration background, I strive to empower children with all abilities through therapeutic activities that support human development and well-being, regardless if you “qualify” for therapy services in the traditional medical model. I believe that all children deserve to connect and feel safe as they navigate their world to experience the joys of being a kid!
2. PLAY IS the PRIORITY of childhood
Kids on the POINT OT is focused on supporting children to fully engage in the activities that occupy their time and add meaning to their life. From self-help skills, to socialization, school engagement, play, and more. I believe in targeting goals by prioritizing play. Play is the developmental medium where children gain motor proficiency, learn social skills, and expand upon their identity and creativity.
3. Empowerment is the key to success
With a model that is focused on delivering care in the natural contexts of where life happens, it is crucial that families feel supported to carryover therapy outcomes. I believe that parent and family empowerment is the true gauge of success. When caregivers take ownership over their child’s therapy process, remarkable things happen. We are all BETTER TOGETHER!
“When you choose Kids on the POINT OT, you are choosing an approach that prioritizes relationships & connection as the means to create safety for children within their bodies & in the sensory world around us!”
