Meet the Therapist
After earning her Master's of Science in Occupational Therapy in 2011 and experiencing a variety of settings for occupational therapy, Jen discovered a passion for early intervention, working with babies and toddlers and their families. This setting not only allows, but places emphasis on, supporting entire families and provides the freedom to truly support clients in living life to the fullest. Using a coaching model, she works together to incorporate her knowledge and expertise with that of each client, who are the experts in the lives of their own children and family. Witnessing the profound impact this approach can have not just on the children, but on whole family systems, solidified her commitment to this approach. In addition to being a professional focus, she has a personal passion for all things neurodiversity. Discovering and accepting her own neurodivergence was a pivotal and deeply validating experience. Now, she is committed to educating and raising awareness about neurodiversity and neurodiversity-affirming practices. As a mother of three neurodivergent children, she is determined to contribute to a more informed and accepting world.
