Megan Chen Therapy
Neurological Rehab
In our healthcare system, home health occupational therapists are extremely limited by the time constraints, demands of their job and red tape of the system. Outpatient occupational therapy can be difficult to access after a neurological injury and often has a long waitlist. As a private practice OT I can provide therapy in your home or with you in the community without those restrictions.
