Meet Ms. Shannon!

Shannon is a licensed Pediatric Occupational Therapist. Her education includes a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Masters degree in occupational therapy, both from St. Ambrose University.

Shannon holds post-professional certifications in SOS Approach to feeding and DIR-Floortime. Ayres' sensory integration has also been a strong influence on Shannon's education and approach to OT.

She has also taken a variety of continuing education trainings, including trauma informed sensory processing treatment, Astronaut Training, Therapeutic Listening, and more. Shannon loves using play and collaborating with others to expand upon therapy ideas and meet each person as they come.

She has worked in clinics, schools, telehealth, home, daycares, and private school settings. In therapy, she uses a child-lead, strength's based approach that is neurodiversity affirming. She values promoting confidence, competence, and meaningful participation in daily tasks and activities.

In her spare time, she enjoys time with her family, running, reading, listening to podcasts or audiobooks, and watching movies.

Our Story

Therapeutic Links was founded by an Occupational Therapist in 2002. This Occupational Therapist still owns, directs and has ongoing contact with the children and families in her practice. This is important in order to best create an atmosphere that understands and listens to the needs of Therapeutic Links families and the community served. Our services and therapists support families from intake to graduation from birth to adulthood as needed. Therapeutic Links staff members are highly skilled with a diverse amount of education for all types of needs. As Occupational Therapists we think holistically and creatively. We are able to engage all ages of individuals in meaningful activities that promote guaranteed progress for our clients. Our staff values collaboration among all caregivers, team members, teachers and medical professionals. At our Grayslake Clinic we are able to offer psychological services, speech therapy and developmental therapy through partnering companies.

We look forward to working with you!
