 Helping Children and Adolescents Grow and Thrive ✨

​

At Kids N Play OT, I provide pediatric occupational therapy in Portland, Oregon, supporting children and adolescents. I use developmentally appropriate, engaging approaches—from guided play for younger children to real-life skill building and functional strategies for older youth. My goal is to help each child confidently develop the life skills that matter most to them.

​

My occupational therapy sessions focus on meaningful everyday activities such as self-care skills, motor coordination, emotional and sensory regulation, and school-based skills like organization, routines, and learning readiness. I support young people in developing these foundational abilities, along with social participation, and independence skills as needed. Through hands-on engagement, encouragement, and a whole-child approach, individuals don’t just practice—they grow and thrive. I strive to empower each person to move through their world with confidence and joy.

• Has challenges with fine motor or visual-motor skills
