The best part of being a therapist is helping my clients achieve their goals, sharing their successes, and motivating them through the tough times. I enjoy becoming acquainted with my clients and their families.

My goal as an Occupational Therapist is to promote health, well-being, and independence with activities in life. It is important to listen, respect, and involve my clients in their health care decisions as we work toward healing.
