I’m Lee Ann. It’s so nice to meet you!
At Growing Places Pediatric Therapy, I am dedicated to helping children and families navigate a wide range of challenges. Whether your child is struggling with sensory processing and modulation concerns, feeding difficulties, motor coordination, or emotional regulation, I’m here to provide compassionate, individualized support.
I help families in key areas of development, including:
Sensory processing and modulation challenges
Emotional regulation, growth mindset, and self-esteem
Joint attention, engagement, and social connection
Sensory-based feeding challenges
Fine and visual motor development and coordination
Promoting independence with daily self-care activities
Executive function and organization skills
I know how tough it can be for families when challenges arise, and when answers feel out of reach. My goal is to walk alongside you and your child with insight, encouragement, and strategies that foster real, lasting growth.
With extensive clinical experience across rehabilitation, outpatient clinics, schools, and early intervention, I have worked with children of all abilities, including those with sensory processing and feeding difficulties, developmental delays, neurodiverse abilities, and neurologic, oncologic, and congenital conditions.
As a pediatric occupational therapist with advanced training in SOS Approach to Feeding™, sensory integration, and Therapeutic Listening®, I provide families with practical tools and strategies to support their child’s development. My understanding of sensory processing informs my feeding work, helping children engage with new foods in a playful, low-pressure way. My diverse background in counseling and as a registered yoga teacher allows me to take a whole-child approach, integrating movement, mindfulness, and play to help children feel safe, confident, and engaged in learning new skills.
Grounded in relationship-based models, I prioritize connection, self-advocacy, and empowerment. By creating a supportive space, I help children build self-awareness, regulate their minds and bodies, and develop meaningful relationships.
Together, we can nurture growth, confidence, and success in every area of your child’s life.
Kind Words
“Lee Ann’s care, passion, and experience help children find regulation strategies that help for years to come. She’s the most professional and knowledgeable occupational therapist I have ever worked with.”
