Stephanie’s journey into neurodivergent support started right at home, as a mom navigating life with a neurodivergent son and a neurotypical daughter. When her son began physical and speech therapy at just 15 months, Stephanie quickly realized the life-changing impact of these therapies. By 18 months, he was immersed in speech and occupational therapy, and Stephanie saw firsthand how meaningful connections in therapy could transform not only her son’s growth but also their family’s outlook.

​

That realization inspired Stephanie, along with her son’s speech and occupational therapists, to co-found Connection Therapy Clinic. They dreamed of creating more than just a therapy center – they wanted a space where kids could feel truly seen, understood, and supported. At Connection Therapy Clinic, therapy is play-based and child-led, bridging the gap between the clinic and home life to make a lasting impact.

​

Over time, Connection Therapy Clinic has become a cornerstone of support for families. Stephanie’s vision for the clinic is simple yet powerful: “We want this place to feel like comfort food.” It’s a space built on inclusivity, respect, and a genuine commitment to helping kids and families thrive.

​

But Stephanie’s work doesn’t stop at the clinic doors. With the tagline “Empowering families, supporting the community,” she actively engages with the larger neurodivergent community to foster understanding, acceptance, and inclusivity. Her experiences in various clinics and programs have shaped the unique approach at Connection Therapy Clinic, emphasizing family-centered care and creating a better way to support children, their families, and the therapists who work with them.

​

Stephanie isn’t just a founder – she’s a mom, a learner, and an advocate who truly understands the highs and challenges of this journey. She’s dedicated to staying informed about the latest research and approaches so families under her care receive the best support possible.
