Hello! I’m Christa
Licensed Occupational Therapist
I specialize in prevention and health and wellness within the adult population. With a background in occupational therapy, I teach, coach, mentor, consult and counsel individuals and groups in personal growth.
I also educate and train clients in improving relationships, work habits, school engagement, and caregiving, as well as advise and support those who have experienced issues of abuse and neglect.
With close to 10 years of occupational therapy experience, I’ve worked in skilled nursing facilities, short and long term, homes and in the community.
Many of my prior clients include those who have experienced:
- a motor vehicle accident
- a stroke
- heart conditions
- arthritis
- respiratory problems
- diabetes
- hip and knee replacements
- Parkinson’s
For many, these conditions come with other issues such as depression, anxiety and social isolation which is also addressed during treatment.
We use a comprehensive all-inclusive approach treating the whole person so that they can get back to living life to their fullest.

Stop Living in Regret: Acceptance
Acceptance is being willing to acknowledge what is or what happened without denying it or resisting the current state of events. Acceptance not only helps to reduce the impact of negative experiences, but also makes a greater impact of reducing the effects of a negative situation.

My Approach & Values
I take pride in realizing and understanding the complexities of life and how it relates to intricacies of the human body – mind, body, and soul.
A healthy balance in these three (3) areas is essential for good mental, physical and emotional health. Balancing these areas are vital in building and maintaining purpose, motivation, quality of life and contentment.
I work with clients to illustrate the importance of how all three of these areas work together for overall health; not just through learning about occupational therapy but also through personal experiences.
