About Theresa

​It is my intention to empower others to be all that they choose to be.   I enjoy teaching workshops to other therapists that enhance their clinical skills.  I am a Master Body Worker and Aroma Therapist. I can release any muscle anywhere, if accessible on a person’s body.  I have a deep understanding of pain.  I believe every person has a right to move, and a right to soak in warm water (not just a shower).  In other words, I believe that tubs, spas, pools etc. should be accessible.  I believe that bathroom doors should be wide enough for wheelchairs to pass through, bathrooms should be big enough to be able to turn a wheelchair around.  Homes, buildings and community activities should be accessible for our disabled. Our wounded soldiers have the right to quality of life after war, which any of us would choose for ourselves.  Everyone has the right to have a productive life. Everyone has the right to make a living and make a contribution to society. Our elderly deserve to have quality of life that they choose to enjoy that is purposeful and meaningful to them.   Everyone has worth.  Occupational Therapists are the facilitators for our clients to achieve their goals, which are purposeful and meaningful to them, which increases their quality of life.

As evidenced by her array of certifications and educational pursuits, Theresa is relentless in her endeavors to expand her knowledge in traditional and non-traditional methods of rehabilitation, as well as multi-disciplinary practices in order to provide the most benefit to her clients.  She is truly driven by a passion to help empower her clients to be all that they desire, to overcome their disabilities.  She believes that everyone deserves to have quality of living and being.
