Hello, I’m Kate!
I am a passionate occupational therapist dedicated to supporting children and adolescents in reaching their fullest potential. My creativity is what first drew me to occupational therapy, and it continues to inspire the way I approach each session-- with flexibility, curiosity, and a commitment to making therapy both meaningful and engaging. I have experience working in therapeutic school settings with clients ages 4 to 18, supporting a wide range of diagnoses including ASD, ADHD, and general developmental delays. Working across this age span has given me a strong understanding of how children grow and learn at different stages. I believe in meeting each child where they are, tailoring interventions to their individual strengths. I am always eager to continue learning and expanding my skills as an occupational therapist!
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my younger siblings, exploring the Chicagoland area after living in St. Louis for the last couple years, and expressing my creativity through crafting. For my own enjoyment, I also run a small side business where I design and create custom merchandise for friends and family. I love finding creative ways to connect, engage, and bring ideas to life. I am so excited to meet you!
