My Story
Hi, I'm Ann. I hate having my picture taken, so please enjoy this candid photo of me picking apples ;) It'll also be relevant by the end of this introduction, so stick with me.

These bio things always lure me into the "overwhelm them with details!" side of my personality, so I'll try to keep this brief and factual. I'm a licensed occupational therapist and trained massage therapist. My career has predominantly been based in pediatrics, because kids are the best and families need all the support they can get.
I'm a neurodivergent mama to two amazing little boys, at least one of whom is neurodivergent himself. I'm here in this space because over the past few years of motherhood my calling to help people has crystallized into helping families like mine: families with members considered outside the (far too small) window of "typical", especially families where neurodivergent or disabled apples have fallen not far at all from their neurodivergent and disabled trees. See, told you the callback to the photo was coming

"The point of parenting is not to have all the answers before we start out but to figure it out on the go as our children grow. Because as they do, so will we." --Bridgett Miller
