Pediatric Occupational Therapist & Sensory Processing Specialist

In-Home & Community-Based Therapy

Nar is a Pediatric Occupational Therapist and Sensory Processing Specialist with over 12 years of experience supporting children with diverse developmental needs.

Our Approach

Rather than focusing solely on isolated skills or clinic exercises, our practice is built around the deep connection between sensory processing, body arousal, and parent-child relationships. We work with you directly in your child’s natural environment to create real, lasting change across your whole family system.

The Impact of This Approach

For Your Child: They gain a deeper understanding of their own body and sensory needs. Instead of feeling overwhelmed or misunderstood, your child learns how to regulate their body, feel safe, navigate everyday transitions, and build confidence in their physical and emotional skills.

For You as Parents: You move away from guessing games and feeling exhausted. Through active, real-time parent coaching, you learn to read your child’s body signals and arousal states. You gain practical tools so you feel calm, capable, and confident in supporting your child during difficult moments.

For Your Family as a Unit: Daily routines –like mealtimes, outings, bath time, and bedtime –become smoother and less stressful. By fostering strong parent-child co-regulation in your actual home environment, your family builds connection, trust, and shared joy in everyday life.

Serving Sonoma, Napa, and Solano counties.

Who We Support:

Children with or without a formal diagnosis who experience sensory processing differences, regulation challenges, motor delay, or routine distress.

Children with neurodivergent profiles & clinical diagnoses, including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, Down Syndrome, Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), and praxis/motor planning differences.

Does your child experience any of these daily differences?

Big emotional outbursts, sudden meltdowns, or sensory overload; needing extra help to calm down, switch activities, turn off screens, or leave the house without a fight.

Covering ears at loud sounds, squinting at lights, crying or panicking during bath time, hair washing, nail clipping, or tooth brushing, or hating clothing tags, seams, and certain fabrics.

Always on the go —running, climbing, jumping off furniture, spinning, crashing into things, or chewing on shirt collars, sleeves, toys, or pencil tops.

Appearing clumsy or uncoordinated, tripping often, bumping into furniture, slumping over at tables, or struggling with physical milestones like jumping, catching a ball, riding a bike, or balancing.

Frustration with using scissors, holding a pencil comfortably, drawing, opening lunch containers, or managing small items like buttons, zippers, and shoelaces.

Trouble noticing when they need to go to the bathroom, when they are hungry, full, hot, or cold, or connecting a fast heart rate or tight tummy to feeling nervous or upset.

Potty training struggles or anxiety, fear of the loud flush or toilet sitting, holding in poop or pee, or missing bodily cues until the last second.

Only eating a very small list of “safe” foods or textures, refusing to try new foods, gagging at certain smells or textures, or struggling to use a spoon and fork.

Running off in crowded or public places, lack of danger awareness, trouble following 2- or 3-step directions, or getting stuck doing play the exact same way every time.

Taking a really long time to settle down and fall asleep, or waking up multiple times during the night.

Whether your child needs help with foundational sensory processing, motor coordination, or daily life routines, our team works closely with your family in the comfort of your home to bring confidence, independence, and joy to their development.

Languages Spoken: English & Tagalog (we are happy to work with interpreters for other languages)
