About Amy Burns, OTR/L:
Welcome! My name is Amy Burns and I’m the mother of two very active little ones. I am a California Native and love all the outdoor activities our state has to offer.
I graduated from Pepperdine University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration. I later attended Cal State Dominguez Hills, where I received a Master’s Degree in Occupational Therapy.
Since 2011, I’ve worked the pediatric field including school, outpatient, and home health settings where I have focused on addressing developmental delays, neurological disorders and sensory integration deficits.
As a therapist, it is my upmost privilege to help families navigate towards growth and change to help their children lead a fulfilling life of joy and success.
