- 🌿 Meet Our New Therapist! 🌿
We’re so excited to welcome Beth Strickland to the Rooted Occupational Therapy team! ✨
- With 5 years of experience as an occupational therapy practitioner, she brings a wealth of knowledge, compassion, and creativity to our clinic. Outside of work, she’s married with 2 kids (a 13 year old boy on the autism spectrum and 11 year old girl), 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 1 turtle 🐶🐶🐱🐱🐢 — so she’s no stranger to a full (and lively!) house. Help us give her a warm welcome in the comments below 👏💚

Happy "Meet the Team" Friday! First up will be our owner, Amber Beckloff. She has been practicing as a pediatric OT since 2018. She has a passion for affirming neurodivergence, sensory processing, regulation, and reflex integration.

She has a 2 year old son with her husband. She enjoys exercise and play as her primary method of regulation. Currently, yoga is her favorite! She brings joy, silliness, and acceptance to this space. She prays over this business earnestly and gives glory to God for every win, big or small.

Honored to be a part of this neurodiversity affirming school 🤍 we LOVE having the opportunity to serve these kiddos in house while also having availability for other kids in the community as well.

Today was Jonathan’s last day 🥲 Having our first Belmont Bridge student join our team for 12 weeks was incredible. With his background in pediatrics and genuine love for OT, his placement was truly transformative for me even as a practitioner. Many families and kids fell in love with Mr. Jonathan (JJ). He will be missed, but I believe he is on his way to BIG things. A ✨metamorphosis ✨if you will. Congratulations and good luck! 🦄🫶🏻

Oh boy was WATER WEEK fun!! It was a blast changing it up a little for some new sensory and artistic exploration outside ☀️💦🔫 Hearing how so many of our kiddos were so excited to come AND talked about it all day long after is the sweetest compliment. We’ll definitely have to plan another one in the future 🐳

Happy WATER WEEK!! A few reminders with the heat:
-Wear water-friendly clothes or a bathing suit if your child would like to play with water.
- WEAR WATER SHOES. The ground is HOT. 🥵
- We have some towels for drying briefly before the end of session, but feel free to bring your own!
- Have water ready for during or after. 💧

Looking forward to playing this week!! 🌊🐠🦀🐙🐳🚿🎣🐡🧊🧊🧊

OUR TEAM✨ I'm proud to introduce you to our Rooted OT team. Ms. Kenedy officially joined us this week as our new OT after being a student of mine last summer! Ms. Elise is my office assistant who helps with scheduling and billing. Ms. Kalli is our sweet OTA who joined us last summer. And I'm the one in the middle with the hair in every direction.😅 I'm the owner of this beautiful practice, and I'm so proud of how we have grown and continue to grow together as practitioners and women.

SOMEDAY *soon* we'll get real cute headshots and look very official and professional, but for today, meet us in the way you would probably meet us in real life✨

Eternally grateful to serve you, Shoals.🌳
