After earning my Occupational Therapy (OT) degree more than 25+ years ago from Utica College ​of Syracuse University,  I had the fabulous opportunity of designing a clinic where I was the director and therapist supporting Autistic individuals with very significant sensory processing differences. They were, along with their families, my teachers. 
​
Presuming competence has come naturally to me and has been my guide throughout my practice.  As an OT I have connected with non-speaking Autistic people and used EFT to assist with decreasing stress and anxiety that may accompany the challenges of apraxia when typing to communicate. 

I take pride in being an "Out of the Box" therapist.  I have never been content with 
"cookie-cutter" approaches.  My intent has always been to support individuals in 
navigating their world with greater comfort and confidence. 

In addition to working in this clinic I have worked: 

• At a local Tribal School with children 0-5 years old
• With youth/teens at a Mental Health Hospital
• In family's homes
• At agencies advocating for individuals with Developmental Disabilities
• ​In Private Practice​

I now see people of all ages and all abilities and it continues to be a joy for me to work as a holistic Occupational Therapist (OT) in assisting individuals to resolve issues of:

• Anxiety
• Stress
• Fears 
• Social/Emotional challenges
• Low Self-Esteem​

                 
            No one deserves to struggle with these difficult challenges.
