Dana Simpson - Occupational Therapist

Dana received her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Montana and Master of Science in Occupational Therapy from A.T. Still University. Dana is certified to administer the Sensory Integration and Praxis Test (SIPT) and certified in Interactive Metronome.

Dana has worked in the school setting for eight years primarily with preschool aged children. She has additional experience with school- aged children with handwriting programs and self-regulation programs.

Dana also has training with oral motor programs, feeding concerns and sensory based eating difficulties for children 3 months to 7 years of age.
