Evaluations
At Leap Forward Therapy we provide a comprehensive, family-centered assessment of a child’s sensory processing, fine motor skills, gross motor coordination, self-care abilities, play skills, and school readiness. Our licensed pediatric OTs use standardized tests, clinical observations, and caregiver interviews to identify strengths and areas of need, then develop a plan of care.

Welcome to Leap Forward Therapy! As the owner and Occupational Therapist, I bring a mindful approach to both my professional and personal life. My goal is to help all clients improve their occupational therapy skills, while working closely with family members to help new skills carry over into the home environment. I firmly believe that building a positive relationship with clients and families, as well as learning in a fun and engaging way is the best path to expanding developmental skills.
