Occupational Therapy

Meet the Team:

FAQs:

  • Who should I contact with any questions/concerns?
    Please email both of us; we work closely together and are in constant communication.
     
  • Who should I invite to the meetings?
    When in doubt, please invite both of us. Sometimes you might get one of us, or even both!
     
  • What does it mean if one of my students has telehealth?
    Katie will collaborate with the case manager/classroom teacher to schedule OT sessions. A telehealth proctor will assist in pick up/drop off of the student and providing the services.
     
  • Sensory concerns or developing a sensory space?
    Please reach out to both of us! As OT practitioners, we love to discuss sensory needs and brainstorm safe, alternative strategies tailored to each student.
