Ariel is a developmental expert with over 13 years of experience across a diverse array of settings. Throughout her career, she has worked with clients of all ages in schools, outpatient pediatrics, outpatient hands, the Army, mental health facilities, telehealth, and geriatric rehab settings. She earned her Doctorate of Science in Occupational Therapy through Baylor University and the U.S. Army, gaining invaluable insights into a wide range of techniques, approaches, and interactions.
