Jessica loves helping people learn the skills they need to live satisfying lives - both her patients and other OTs. She's been a neuro OT for over 20 years, works hard to stay on top of evidence, and started New to Neuro OT Mentoring in 2022 to support other therapists and rehab clinics in the sometimes incredible and sometimes overwhelming world of neuro. She has also been an adjunct neuro OT professor at Indiana University, guest lecturer at many OT institutions, and is an (almost!) annual presenter at her state OT annual conferences. She knows how hard OTs work and how HARD the work is. You'll find she has a very approachable, practical style of continuing education based both in evidence and experience that leaves you with actual new tools and more confidence in your clinical reasoning.
