United StatesWhat I'm looking for
At Houston Pediatric Therapy and Therapy for Life, I provide pediatric occupational therapy support for children with autism and developmental delays, using play-based interventions to strengthen fine motor, sensory, self-care, visual motor, and functional skills.
I collaborate with OTRs, PTs, SLPs, BCBAs, caregivers, educators, and multidisciplinary teams to support consistent care across home, school, and clinical settings. I also bring experience implementing IEP goals, documenting measurable progress, training caregivers on home programs and sensory strategies, and applying primitive reflex integration and manual lymphatic drainage techniques.
