Rachel is a compassionate Pediatric Occupational Therapist originally from Fort Myers, Florida. She is committed to providing a well-rounded approach to care, recognizing that a child’s growth goes beyond physical development to include emotional, cognitive, and social growth. Driven by her passion for helping kids reach their fullest potential, both in everyday tasks and future goals, Rachel is always exploring creative, evidence-based strategies to empower children and support their progress. She works closely with families to develop collaborative, individualized therapy plans that ensure every child receives the care and encouragement they need to thrive at home, school, and beyond!

Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with family and friends, going to the beach, baking, and exploring new eateries in Jacksonville.
