About Me
Hi!
I’m Mikayla. I am a registered and licensed occupational therapist with a passion for pediatrics, and I am really glad you are here!
I have over six years experience working with children ranging from 1 to 19 years with various diagnoses including autism, ADHD, sensory integration, fine and gross motor delays, and behavioral concerns.
My journey started as a registered behavioral technician at a school for children with autism. It is there I found my passion for working with the autism community and those with special needs. After graduate school, I have worked in both a pediatric outpatient clinic and school setting.
I like to focus my occupational therapy sessions on meaningful skills for both children (and their parents) while using current evidence-based research and a naturalistic approach. This means I work with the child’s interests to make therapy engaging and motivating for them. I believe therapy is a perfect blend of fun and challenge to help encourage growth.
In my free time, I enjoy all things outdoors including running and mountain biking with my husband. When I am not outside, I can often be found eating at a new restaurant or cooking up a new recipe. My love for the outdoors fuels my drive to be mindful of my environmental impact. You can often find me at garage sales or thrift stores looking for secondhand treasures.
