"If you are looking for a true child lead OT, then this is it! Amy has ninja skills and a compassionate heart, and she has helped my son so much. Therapy time disguised as fun! OT is always the highlight of his week, and we look forward to every visit. We have seen major improvements in my sons behavior, abilities, and frustration resilience. I am not sure there are enough words to express my gratitude for Amy at Pause & Play Occupational Therapy, and her whole child approach. She is not your average OT locking in an insurance dictated box. She has a way of truly seeing your child and understanding (and loving) them for who they are and has the gift to guide kids to be their best self. The relief and peace brought to my son, our family, and life in general are absolutely priceless."

“Both my daughters have worked with Miss Amy for over 2 years now, and I highly recommend her. They absolutely love Amy and look forward to seeing her each week, and somehow she gets them to do challenging activities they would resist doing with me. I've seen tremendous improvement in skills and behavior since they started working with Amy. She works on fine motor skills, sensory integration, self-regulation, but to my girls, it feels like play. Amy even came with me to a parent-teacher conference to help give strategies to the teacher working with my daughter. She is amazing!”

“Amy is an incredible, one of a kind occupational therapist. Her curiosity about what makes my daughter tick and what motivates her is so refreshing. What sets her apart from other OT's we've seen is her child-led approach and that all of her activities are play based. This keeps my kiddo interested, comfortable, and wanting to come back. The lack of parent education at other clinics has been disappointing so when Amy offers support through books, community resources, and general life advice it makes me feel seen. I love the whole-family approach and we are so happy to watch our daughter keep growing and processing with her.”
