Being a parent is hard, the internet makes it even harder. With so much information, opinions and (unsolicited) advice coming our way, it can make every decision you make feel like the wrong move.
As a mother and pediatric physical therapist, I have dedicated my practice to educating parents on gross motor development so they can make informed decisions and advocate for their kids’ needs with confidence. It’s time to say goodbye to the outdated “wait and see” mentality and show Dr. Google the door.
Through my online courses, virtual consultations and in-person physical therapy sessions, I’m rewriting the narrative around physical therapy – showing parents how to be proactive with their children’s development and turn the other cheek to all of the internet’s crazy notions about how to parent “the right way”.
For all families including those in Colleyville and the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex, I am proud to offer Virtual Wellness Consults through ZOOM. These consults are educational in nature, lasting anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. Afterwards, you will be provided with a handout of developmental skills customized to your child through a followup email.
During face to face evaluations, I’ll spend some time with your little, trying to better understand what challenges they are facing. Unlike a doctors visit, I will observe your child playing to get an accurate idea of how they move. We’ll work on creating a plan of unique, outside the box exercises and next steps to help develop their gross motor skills. Whether it’s using a laundry basket for strength or creating an at home princess obstacle course, we will come up with something that keeps your little having a great time in an easy way for you.
