Ariel Blanchette, MAOT, OTR/L
Pediatric Occupational Therapist
My specialties:
- Occupational therapy
A referral may be needed for this provider.
Professional interests:
- Feeding therapy
- Visual motor deficits
- Childhood trauma
- Sensory processing challenges
- Emotional regulation
Practice philosophy: I believe in meeting a child and their family where they are at. It takes a lot of courage to initiate any kind of service, so I want to work with each family individually to address their concerns and problem-solve together.
What are you passionate about and why? I am passionate about whole-family care. While I may be seeing your child in the clinic, it's truly changes in the home environment that make a difference. I am interested in making the little moments in your life easier with fewer meltdowns and challenges!
If you weren't a health care provider, what would you be? Unsure; perhaps in advertising or a travel photographer
What is your personal health goal? To drink more water and be more active!
