Megan Jewell
Owner & Occupational Therapist
Hello + welcome!
Hi, I’m Megan Jewell, a pediatric occupational therapist and mother of two! I received my bachelor of Science degree in Kinesiology from Sonoma State University in 2010 and continued on with obtaining my Master degree is Occupational Therapy from the University of St. Augustine in 2012.
I am passionate about helping families to gain more confidence with parenting neurodiverse children, and equipping families with tools that foster connection and joy within the whole family unit. I have worked with a diverse population of clients, and have dedicated my career towards learning treatments rooted in sensory integration. As a Point Loma native, it is so rewarding to be able to support this community I love so dearly with a service that makes a difference in the lives of so many. I am proud to be living out my profession’s vision to “maximize health, well-being, and quality of life for all people, populations, and communities through effective solutions that facilitate participation in everyday living.”
Apart from working directly with families, I am dedicated towards educating local preschool teachers on the benefits of early intervention and proactive developmental supports. It is of great importance to me that educators in our community feel equipped to look at children through a nervous system lens, and my goal is to help teachers to meet behaviors with compassion and curiosity.
I hold certifications and trainings in a wide variety of topics, and enjoy being a part of a profession where learning never ends.
I find great benefit and pride in attending Camp Avanti in Minesotta each summer, where OT’s from across the globe gather to provide an intensive therapeutic camp experience for children.
Thank you for being here, I look forward to being a part of your child’s journey to success!
With Great Appreciation
I wouldn’t be half the therapist I am today without the love, support, and passion that Kids on the POINT OT’s founder, who happens to be my mother, Bobbi Hanna, instilled in me and in this company. She has touched the lives of countless families, therapists, and community members through her never-ending efforts to ensure quality was attained in its highest form through the power of sensory integration. I am proud of her 2023 retirement, and grateful to continue strengthening the impact Kids on the POINT OT has in the community in which we both love so dearly. I am immensely grateful for her mentorship and vision of what OT can do to truly change the lives of the children and families we support!
