ABOUT

I am a pediatric occupational therapist who cares deeply about personalized, family-centered care and engaging children through their interests. At Brooklyn OT, I offer services to toddlers, children, teens, and their families located in Brooklyn and Manhattan.  As an occupational therapist, I have specialized training in the areas of self-regulation and sensory processing, executive function, attention, and motor learning.

 

I work with children with Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), Autism, Dyspraxia/Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), Learning Disabilities, and other diagnoses or challenges which may impact a child’s function.

​

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Child Development and a Master’s degree in Occupational Therapy from Tufts University in Boston. After becoming a licensed occupational therapist, I worked for years in schools (public and private), clinics, and early intervention. During my time as an early intervention provider, I saw how quickly children were able to develop skills when they were provided with therapy in their natural environment. Since then, I have become a passionate advocate for the value and effectiveness of home-based care.

​

In my occupational therapy sessions, I incorporate a combination of research-backed strategies and playfulness to engage your child and work towards our goals. I believe in presuming competence in children’s abilities, approaching challenges with curiosity, and finding joy in the therapeutic process!
