ABOUT
Hello! I am Jessica Earle, founder and proud owner of New Leaf Occupational Therapy!
I have been a pediatric occupational therapist for over 12 years with a broad range of experience in sensory integration, feeding therapy, and attachment-based therapy. ​
​
I've been fortunate to gain valuable experience in various settings across Canada and also learning from fantastic mentors along the way.
​
As a mother of three children, I value quality-based services and I also feel relief when I am able to access therapy services quickly. I have also experienced the heaviness that can come with "being on a waitlist" and feeling like an invisible number. It's important to offer services but just as important to be "heard" as parent.
​
I value a family-centered approach and working closely with other professionals to help meet the therapeutic needs of each family.
