Diversity and inclusion keep popping up in academia. It's not just with diversity in gender, race, sexuality, etc., but also with practitioners from several different occupational therapy schools. How can we use the richness of this diversity to help the profession grow? How can we leverage this to the advantage of our OT profession?

In this week’s Pre OT Secrets, Jessica Lopez will interview Michelle DeJesus. Michelle has always been a dream of hers to start my own practice to best serve her kids in their natural environments. Through Neuplay Therapy, she has been able to utilize my passion for brain development, neurorehabilitation, and family-oriented occupational therapy services to help my clients achieve their goals and more importantly, - improve upon the family’s quality of life. With the experience of working in a nationally-recognized children’s hospital as well as providing early intervention services in the home, she has gathered tools, certifications, and experience that have allowed her to best serve children with a variety of diagnoses including cerebral palsy, autism, ADHD, sensory processing disorder, genetic syndromes, developmental delays, and more. More importantly, she truly believes in building trust and connection with my families as the best intervention is that which empowers families with education and tools to maximize a child’s potential.
