Hi! I am Lauren Almanza, MS, OTR/L. I obtained my Master of Science in Occupational Therapy from the University of Illinois in Chicago, completing internships in Salt Lake City, Chicago, and Honolulu. I worked for 10 years as an occupational therapist in various rehabilitation settings - outpatient, inpatient, acute care, and community-based throughout Texas. I have extensive experience in neurological rehabilitation, community reintegration, and holistic care. I joined the Survivor Healthcare team in Fall 2022.
I grew up in Hawaii and California, and have also lived in Montana and Colorado. I have traveled to 35 countries! I find joy in good books, cooking up a storm, fluffy socks, traveling, photography, house plants, and spending time in nature with my kids and husband.
