Meet Our Occupational Therapist
Julia Shannon
OTR/L, GCFP
I have always had a passion for helping moms, babies, and families.
As an Occupational Therapist since 2005, I have enjoyed working with all ages in a variety of settings.
I found my love of movement with the Feldenkrais Method® in 2007, which is a gentle, hands-on somatic approach. Through a variety of neuromotor and manual therapy techniques, I address movement, sensory, and overall function at the core of the nervous system.
My personal journey led me to the world of tongue ties and myofunctional therapy. I use a holistic, whole-body approach to swallowing, eating/feeding, and oral motor coordination.
I am a mother of 2 sweet boys and 1 wild girl. We love traveling & exploring, trying new restaurants, sporting events, art, and music.
