Kelly graduated from UConn with a BS in Allied Health Sciences and quickly pursued her Masters of Science in Occupational Therapy from Sacred Heart University. Kelly has always had an interest in pediatrics, and has been practicing in various pediatric settings for about 9 years. She has experience in both school-based and outpatient settings and experience working with ages birth – adulthood. Kelly spent 7 years in a high-school/transitional setting developing independent living routines, work-readiness skills and functional sensory diets for teens and adults with a variety of needs and abilities.
Kelly is very interested in the link between self-regulation in both the mind and body, and has experience working with children with various mental-health diagnoses. She has pursued continuing education in Primitive Reflex Integration and believes in a whole-body/mind approach to therapy.
When she is not being an OT (which, let’s be honest, she’s always being an OT), Kelly is a mom to a toddler girl and a 6 year old black lab. She enjoys spending time with her family, yoga and has pursued her Reiki Level 1 certification with hopes to advance that certification some day.
