History
After moving from New York City in 2007 and practicing for two years on the West Side, this location opened for business in 2009. Practicing as an OT for 16 years. Experienced in treatment in outpatient clinics (both intimate and large), schools, homes, and hospitals. I strongly believe in a team approach and the importance of communication with parents, teachers, and other therapists in the best interests of the child (such as developing sensory recommendations, school observations and school/home accommodations). I lecture on such subjects as sensory processing (and it's connection to learning), self-regulation, autism, fine motor skills, and sensory differences (especially as linked to vision and learning disabilities). Several other OT's are also employed in this practice.
