What is Occupational Therapy?
Occupational Therapy (OT) empowers children to overcome challenges that may be holding them back from thriving in their daily lives. Whether it’s difficulties with communication, emotional regulation, sensory processing, or motor skills, OT provides personalized support to help children build confidence and independence."Occupations" are the everyday activities that matter most—like dressing, eating, playing, socializing, attending school, or getting a good night’s sleep. Through OT, we remove obstacles and equip children with the tools and skills they need to succeed in these meaningful routines.
Experience the Power of Child-Led Play!
Meet Karina!
Hi there! I’m Karina, the founder of Play n’ Grow Therapy. I’m a passionate Occupational Therapist who specializes in helping children unlock their full potential by focusing on emotional regulation, sensory processing, and functional communication.
Every child is wonderfully unique, which is why I tailor therapy to their individual needs, preferences, and strengths. I also believe that parents are a key part of the journey. Together, we’ll create strategies and tools that empower you to support your child every step of the way.
I hold certification in the DIR/Floortime model, which emphasizes the power of child-led play to foster growth.
During therapy sessions, I join the child in their world of play, letting their creativity guide us. This approach provides incredible insights into how they process the world around them and what motivates them to learn and grow.
If you think your family may benefit from OT or parent coaching, please don't hesitate to schedule a call with me- the first one is complimentary! I am here for you, and eager to help!

About Our Logo
The Plant
The Blocks
The Floor
Air plants, or Tillandsia, flourish while attached to trees. They absorb water from the air around them to survive. Like a child's nurturing network—including parents, like the trees they cling to, teachers, therapists, friends, and family—air plants illustrate the significance of support in growth. Their soil-free growth symbolizes flexibility and non-traditional life paths.
In addition, the air plant symbolizes freedom and creativity, reflecting our advocacy for neurodiversity affirming care and child-led play.
We line up the blocks, instead of stacking them, to show that there's no single way to play—any style is fine! What is play? It's unique to each person. Instead of teaching someone how to play, we observe their unique play style and then join them!
The brown line in our logo symbolizes the floor, illustrating our use of the DIR Floortime method. This technique gets parents and therapists actively engaging with kids by playing on the floor. Why? It helps us connect with children at their level, fostering better interaction and understanding!
Let's work together to help your child play, learn, and thrive!
