✨I’m opening a few new OT spots and wanted to share here in case any local families are looking for support for their child’s regulation, sensory needs, or emotional well-being.

✨I accept MaineCare and private pay and offer 60-minute, play-based sessions.

✨Feel free to message me with questions or to check availability 🤍

Spots are very limited, but also keep an eye out for a monthly play group coming soon!

Dysregulation isn’t ✨always✨a sensory issue.

Sometimes it’s about feeling unsafe.
Sometimes it’s about being rushed.
Sometimes it’s about not being understood.

That’s why the space I’m creating at Pine Tree OT is about more than swings or sensory tools. It’s about calm, connection, predictability, and relationships — a place where nervous systems can settle before anything is asked of them.

More little glimpses of this space coming soon 🌲

As I unpack and set up this space, I keep thinking about the community that will grow here — families, children, and eventually small, gentle play experiences for Care Access Members.

It’s more than a room. It’s the beginning of something really special 🤍

More coming soon. Slow and intentional, always.

Yesterday I ordered all of the equipment for my new OT space 🌲

After spending the last 10 years working in schools, daycares, outpatient clinics, and family homes, I finally get the opportunity to intentionally curate a space I’ve been dreaming about for a long time.

Every piece was chosen with purpose — to support regulation, connection, imagination, and child-led play. A space designed to feel safe for nervous systems, especially for neurodivergent children and families.

A breath of fresh air from the moment you walk in.

It’s still empty right now, but it’s about to come to life in the most meaningful way.
Slow, thoughtful, and rooted in the way children actually grow. 🤍

As Pine Tree OT grows into its new space, founding Care Access Members and OT clients will receive early access to small, intentional play experiences designed to support regulation, connection, and play 🌲

More details coming after opening.

Today I’m signing the lease for my new OT space✨

Pine Tree OT is growing into a space built for:
🌲 nervous system support
🌲 imaginative, child-led play
🌲 neurodivergent-affirming care
🌲 real, ongoing support for parents

I’m opening referrals now and welcoming a small group of founding Care Access Members, who will receive early access to resources, connection, and **future member-only play experiences** as this space evolves.

This space is just beginning — and I’m so grateful to grow it with families who value regulation, connection, and play 💚

Message me if you’d like more info.

If you’ve tried
✨ routines
✨ visuals
✨ reward systems
✨ “being consistent”

…and it still feels hard —

You’re not failing.
Your child isn’t broken.

They need support that meets their nervous system, not control.

I help parents understand why things are hard —
and what actually helps.

No shame.
No compliance-based strategies.
Just real support.

The holidays often come with changes in routine, louder environments, new expectations, and big emotions.
For many neurodivergent children, this can feel overwhelming—not exciting.

If things feel harder right now, it’s not because anyone is doing something wrong.

A few gentle ways to support regulation during the holidays:
✨ Keep small pieces of routine when you can (meals, bedtime, quiet time)
✨ Offer predictability: talk through plans before they happen
✨ Build in breaks from people, noise, and activities
✨ Lower expectations—connection matters more than compliance
✨ Stay regulated yourself when possible (kids borrow our nervous systems)

A calm, supported child—and caregiver—is more important than traditions done “perfectly.”

🌲Neuroaffirming OT means honoring your child’s nervous system, communication, and individuality—while still supporting growth and participation in daily life with goals that matter to the entire family.

🌲Therapy doesn’t have to feel like constant correction.

🌲It can feel supportive, respectful, and empowering.

🌲Play, patience and passion are far more effective than fighting for compliance.

I made something I wanted to wear myself.

As an OT—I talk every day about honoring nervous systems instead of fixing people. About unlearning compliance. About letting kids (and adults) exist as they are.

I couldn’t find apparel that reflected that and felt like home, so I made it.

🌲Maine-rooted.
♾️Neurodivergent-affirming.
đź’™For the moms, OTs, SLPs, PTs, and teachers who get it.

No pressure. Just sharing in case it resonates
