Linda Sragow Occupational Therapist

We started working with Linda about a year ago and our four-year old son has dramatically changed during that time. His quality of life has greatly improved since starting OT sessions with Linda.

Before meeting Linda, my son was experiencing numerous episodes of anxiety surrounding loud noises, transitions, and separation. He stopped enjoying the outdoors, such as walks and even playgrounds, because the sounds of motorcycles and trucks overwhelmed him. He would not go to the zoo because he couldn’t tolerate seeing animals and hearing their noises. He was also petrified around household items and tools such as vacuums and hammers. He would often cry and hide under tables or run away due to the affect loud noises had on him.

Linda has gone above and beyond to help him with all of the above issues. She has empowered and enabled him to face his fears and has worked on his entire body to strengthen him and his bodily awareness.
She takes a unique approach with each child and does not employ a one-size-fits-all strategy. She diligently works to identify the root cause and builds a therapy plan accordingly. She has enabled him to deal with his different challenges and provided him with lifelong tools to combat them.

Through working with Linda, our son is able to face all the situations that used to make him deeply uncomfortable. He now knows what he is capable of and recognizes what he can accomplish. He can now enjoy playgrounds and the zoo again and will even vacuum from time to time! He continues to work on his fine motor skills and we have seen so much improvement.

I would highly recommend Linda to any parent who is facing similar challenges with their child of any age and have the utmost confidence that she can vastly improve their lives, the way she has for our son.

Linda has worked tirelessly with both of my sons, and is an amazing Occupational Therapist. She makes their sessions fun, and engaging, and has has an amazing knack for constantly coming up with new, challenging activities! She always encourages them to get to that next level, even if it's a little hard at first. She has taught me so much in regards to helping my sons both during their sessions and at home as well. Professionally, as a Speech-Language Pathologist, I have learned so much from Linda and have found new ways to help the families I work with! Thank you, Linda, for everything!

I am a preschool teacher that has had very positive experiences working with Linda Sragow as a pediatric OT. Her expertise in working with young children is exceptional. She has a true understanding of children and their needs in their home and school life. She is excellent in partnering with the school, teachers and is able to help navigate the partnering with parents and the child’s school environment.
I highly recommend Linda Sragow for children who need Ot . I have seen positive effects from her working with children in her OT therapy.
