Ms. Lauren
OTD, OTR/L
Pediatric Feeding and Occupational Therapist
Lauren has loved working with children for as long as she can remember! The opportunity to combine play, helping children to achieve new skills, and working closely with families to provide support and education is what excites Lauren most as a pediatric occupational and feeding therapist. Lauren grew up in Minnesota, and received her bachelor and doctorate in Occupational Therapy from Creighton University. She has continued on to receive a Sensory Integration Certification from USC, with specializations in birth to three, and sensory integration for children on the Autism spectrum. She loves to find the passion and strengths of each child, and incorporate those intrinsic motivators into therapeutic activities.
