PEDIATRIC OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST

     

        With 38 years of pediatric practice in Occupational Therapy including 17 years with the Cambridge Publics Schools, I am in my fifth year of private practice and I have brought my work to the broader community.  This involves supporting expanding public awareness of the critical life-long contribution that sophisticated-fine motor development and sensory-gross motor function provide for an individual, and the ongoing satisfication that accompanies these growth processes.

        Previous Occupational Therapy employment since 1979 includes work in early intervention, sensory integration clinics, special education collaboratives, and Gabler Children's Center: the Commonwealth's former pediatric psychiatric facility.  I earned a Master in Science in Occupational Therapy at Columbia University in New York in 1979, a B.A. in Sociology at S.U.N.Y. Binghamton in 1975, and Sensory Integration International Certifications in 1985 and 1994.
