ABOUT
The mission of Coleman Pediatric Therapy is to honor and nurture the potential within every child we serve by providing a full spectrum of support through two core tracks.
Our Therapy Track provides traditional, expert pediatric therapy that empowers each individual child & their families. Our community track fosters a stronger, more inclusive local community through programming that includes community & family.
MEET OUR FOUNDER
KATIE COLEMAN, a registered and licensed occupational therapist, is the founder and owner of Coleman Pediatric Therapy. After working in various pediatric settings since beginning her career in 2010, she recognized a clear need for more resources in Southeastern Connecticut. With a strong commitment to filling that gap, she founded Coleman Pediatric Therapy in 2018 to deliver expert pediatric therapy services to her local community.
In addition to her Connecticut OT license and registration with the National Board of Occupational Therapy (NBCOT), her professional credentials and specialized trainings include:
SOS Approach to Feeding
Vital Links Therapeutic Listening
Vital Links Astronaut Training
Learning Without Tears
Size Matters Handwriting
Zones of Regulation
SibShops
When she’s not at Coleman Pediatric Therapy, Katie cherishes her time unwinding with a good book or relishing in the energy of a live performance. Her lifelong passion for dance, a pursuit she has loved since she was three years old, continues to be a source of joy and creative expression. Above all, her greatest happiness comes from spending time and making memories with her friends and family, especially laughing and singing with the absolute light of her life, her daughter.
THE CPT DREAM TEAM
The very heart of Coleman Pediatric Therapy is our team! The dedication, passion, and expertise that you all bring every day is what makes CPT so special. CPT would not be where it is today without each and every one of you & your unwavering commitment to the children and families we serve. It is your drive and perseverance that bring our vision of compassionate, family-centered care to life. We are looking forward to seeing where this dream team leads us next.
