Neuro Occupational Therapy Evaluation and Treatment for people recovering from Stroke, Brain Injury, and Brain Tumor.
-
I operate from the zip code 90039. I deliver care directly to homes throughout the Greater Los Angeles area, including the Westside, San Fernando Valley, and San Gabriel Valley. For extended travel beyond a roughly 25-mile radius (including Orange County, Thousand Oaks, and Santa Clarita), an additional pro-rated travel fee applies according to distance and estimated drive time. Please contact me directly with your address to discuss custom scheduling and fee for the extended travel.

If you are looking for intensive, in-home Occupational Therapy to help you recover from stroke, traumatic brain injury, or brain tumor, you can simply book an evaluation with me.
If you’re recovering from a different condition, send me a message and tell me more so I can ensure I am the best fit for you.
-
As a private-pay practitioner who treats clients in their home (or other meaningful environments), I bring evidenced-based care, undivided attention, and maximum personalization of care.
-
I do not accept insurance. Unfortunately, insurance companies significantly impede quality care by dictating session quantity, length of sessions, types of treatment, and redundant documentation that cut into patient care. At your request, however, I will provide a superbill that you can use to submit to insurance for reimbursement on your own. I can make no guarantee, however, that your insurance will reimburse you.
-
A superbill is essentially an itemized receipt containing the exact medical billing codes and charges I would submit to insurance companies if I were contracted with them. Since this is a private, out-of-network practice, I provide this document to you so you can submit it directly to your insurance provider to seek potential reimbursement for a portion of your out-of-pocket care.
-
Collaborative, rigorous, and fun. My goal is that each session is filled with treatment that directly assists in improving your ability to do what’s important to you. I aim to leave you feeling like you worked hard and made progress. Hopefully, the session flies by because you’re having fun. Fun = more neuroplasticity.
