OT with Kimberly
The Full Story
About
I love OT. It is relative, individualized, and an incredible form of therapy for our children. As a pediatric and sensory processing specialist, I believe that all children (and caregivers!) benefit from a 'deep dive' into their sensory system. Identifying and fully understanding your own unique sensory system supports emotional regulation, social skills, coordination, innovation/problem solving, self confidence, and self-advocacy skills... just to name a few! I personally had challenges as a young child with sensory processing and wish I had the tools I know now to support my growth through childhood.
I am constantly inspired by the children and families that I work with. As a sole provider, I am able to fully support families in order to meet their desired goals. While my passion lies in sensory processing, I also prioritize clear communication with caregivers and the child's entire care team.
​
I am originally from Seattle, WA where I also attended undergraduate and graduate school at the University of Washington. I then moved to Los Angeles, and after a few years, relocated to Franklin, TN with my husband, Landon (who is a Franklin native) and our sweet dog Gus. We are incredibly devoted to the youth and healthcare in our community. In my spare time I love to practice yoga, run, be outside, read, cook, and spend time with family and friends!
