"Behold, I am making all things new.” - Revelation 21:5b

As human beings, we all desire to feel a sense of belonging and competence in our daily lives. When we experience barriers to functioning, it can often impact how we see ourselves, our interactions with others, work, play, and/or our ability to care for ourselves. Occupational therapy is a practical approach that focuses on the routines, activities, and skills that matter most to children, families, and adults. As an occupational therapist, I strive to employ a holistic approach to evaluation and use accessible treatment approaches that facilitate growth. My desire is that people discover their strengths, can better evaluate and support their needs, and experience more hope and success in their daily lives. I enjoy working with a variety of people, from young children (4 years and older) to young adults and have extensive experience with adolescents and teens.
