Our Core Values

Brooke Wallace, MOT, OTR/L

I’m Brooke! Founding Owner and Occupational Therapist, I have 8 years of experience as an OT practitioner, involving a wide range of settings and skill-sets. This experience includes working in pediatric clinics, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, and providing in-home services through my own mobile practice. I am a wife and also a mother to a sweet and adventurous toddler, and we have two fur-babies. Spending time outdoors is a favorite pastime. You can find me in my garden, at the beach, boating, fishing, or exploring new areas, when not working.
I love helping people feel their best! I’ve always enjoyed problem-solving, which helps me find the “why” behind problems and creatively modify tasks/environments to increase independence and quality of life. I knew I would be an OT after my grandmother experienced a traumatic brain injury, which left her in need of occupational, physical, and speech therapy services. Though she is no longer with me, I desire to continue serving others in her honor.

Owning a private practice has been a long-term goal since I entered this profession. I’m here to serve my community with a multidisciplinary clinic, which allows an individual to receive any or all services under the same roof, with a team of therapists that they have grown to trust. I also deeply value the professionals that work alongside me. Starting my own practice allows me to pour into other professionals, and learn collaboratively, so that I may serve my community both through direct patient care and by fostering a fun, healthy, and professional working environment for local professionals.
