Emily Cleveland

OTR/L

Emily Cleveland is a compassionate occupational therapist who works with children through an attunement-based approach that focuses on supporting each child’s nervous system, emotional development, and sense of safety. She believes that meaningful growth happens when children feel truly seen, accepted, and supported for who they are.

Emily has over six years of experience working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and ADHD. Her work centers on honoring each child’s temperament, individuality, and developmental needs while helping them build the skills necessary to navigate daily life with greater confidence and ease. She focuses on creating a therapeutic environment where children feel safe, understood, and empowered to explore, connect, and grow.

Emily’s approach emphasizes the importance of emotional safety and connection as the foundation for development. By meeting children where they are and attuning to their nervous system cues, she helps them strengthen regulation, build resilience, and develop the skills needed for participation at home, school, and in relationships.

Emily values partnering closely with families to ensure that children feel supported across environments. She is passionate about helping children develop confidence in themselves while building the emotional and functional skills that allow them to thrive.
