At Blossom & Bloom, we believe therapy should be FUN and engaging because children learn best when they are motivated!

Our approach focuses on meaningful connection and intervention tailored to each child. From motor skills to cognitive abilities, feeding challenges to sensory processing, we address crucial areas like play, self-help, emotional regulation, and social skill development. By providing therapy services at home, at daycare, or in the classroom, we will target each child’s specific goals using their natural environment as the foundation for skill development. Through a thoughtful combination of parent coaching, child-directed activities, and evidence-based therapy, skilled OT services will help reduce barriers and support each child in building confidence and a sense of accomplishment.

Hi there!

I'm so glad you've landed here. My name is Jenna, mother to three beautiful and wonderfully unique children and Founder of Blossom & Bloom Therapy Services.

 

Blossom & Bloom was born from a pressing need for accessible pediatric therapy services within Indian River County and surrounding areas. I have a passion for engaging with children who have unique needs and assisting and educating parents along the way.

 

I graduated from Florida Gulf Coast University in 2013 with my Master's of Science in Occupational Therapy degree, and I have been a Board Certified Occupational Therapist for 9 years, with the last 5 of those years in direct pediatric therapy services. 

I have experience working with children from a multitude of backgrounds, ages, and diagnoses, and am a Certified Autism Specialist (CAS).

When I'm not treating clients and running a business, you can find me hanging out with my kids (and my puppy and kitty), going to the beach, kayaking, coloring, or reading a good book. 

 

I am so excited to get to know you and your child!

Testimonials
Website-redesign_07.jpg

"We have seen a world of difference in our three year old’s behaviors, skills, and general outlook since working with Jenna for the past ~6 months. When we started, our son was very anxious, acting out and running away when meeting even familiar people (grandparents, cousins, teachers). He was crying that he didn’t want to go to school because it was scary and having wild emotional outbursts where he’d destroy his room, toys, etc.


Jenna started with her initial evaluation, and the initial focus was on building trust. She was flexible to meet him at his schools and home and made him feel so comfortable. He was always so excited to meet with her, which was impressive to me considering his social anxiety! Jenna worked with him on a variety of things from communicating emotions, self-regulation, fine motor skills, sensory play, etc.


His recent parent-teacher conference was full of praise for how confident and generally happy he is, how well he regulates his emotions (takes deep breaths to calm down), and is showing major improvement in his fine motor skills— a complete 180 from just a few months ago. All a result of the great work Jenna has done with him. We could not be happier with the results!"
