Our journey with Sprout Outdoor Pediatric Occupational Therapy has been nothing short of transformative for our daughter, who is on the autism spectrum. Ryan is an AMAZING occupational therapist who brings positive energy to each session and always provides a fostering environment where our daughter thrives. He is an expert in his field (a true natural) and as a parent, I greatly appreciate the tips and strategies he shares with me. He helps me better understand my daughter’s sensory profile and various ways she can receive the input she’s craving in our home environment. The sessions with Ryan has helped our daughter develop fine and gross motor skills, sensory integration, and daily living abilities which all have significantly improved her overall functional skills and independence. Ryan’s dedication, expertise, and collaborative efforts have profoundly impacted our daughter's life, and we are deeply grateful for the positive changes they have brought about. Thank you, Sprout Outdoor Pediatric Occupational Therapy, for your unwavering commitment to her growth and well-being. All in all, I wholeheartedly recommend Ryan to service your child. He's the absolute best!!!

Ryan is absolutely amazing!! Occupational therapy outdoors for a six year old boy who has a lot of energy is priceless. Our son definitely learns better in a park, using hands on “toys”. Ryan worked with our son Landon who was diagnosed with autism. Landon learned simple things like, do a non preferred task in order to get to do a preferred task. Ryan was great about using visual timers which has been a life saver at home as well. Teaching Landon about where his body is in space. How to calm his body. Ryan is also very helpful to the parents. He gives you his time to talk with you after sessions so you can use helpful tips at home. We traveled about an hour each way for sessions that’s how much we would recommend this incredible OT and human being!

Ryan was the best hands down for my child. My son loved his time with Ryan and looked forward to every session. I saw so much progress over a year of working with Ryan-from learning what kind of activities actually “calm” my child down, to creative outlets of wild energy, to body awareness and reflexes. I also got so much out of the sessions. Because it’s a helpful talking to someone who understands what you are seeing at home. I think I need to book my own OT sessions. If you are wondering if your child will benefit from OT with Ryan… the answer is 1000% yes.

I cannot recommend Ryan highly enough! Throughout nearly 10 months of working with my daughter, Ryan has facilitated incredible progress in her motor skills, body coordination, and ability to plan and maintain focus. Ryan has a remarkable ability to establish a genuine connection with his young clients. His friendly demeanor and warm personality immediately put my daughter at ease, creating an environment where she felt comfortable and motivated to tackle her challenges head-on. Despite my daughter’s preference for female educators and therapists, she formed a strong bond with Ryan, considering him her best friend! Ryan specializes in outdoor OT, which worked well with my daughter (and he also provides therapy in clinic settings for clients who benefit from that environment). His sessions are meticulously designed blending fun, engaging activities with therapy goals. My daughter was always excited to see what he brings from his pick-up truck, which seems like a treasure chest full of fun surprises. I also appreciate his commitment to parental support and education. He actively involves parents and caregivers in the therapy process, providing comprehensive explanations of therapy goals and progress and equipping us with strategies for us to apply at home. Ryan is not just a skilled OT but a genuine ally to his young clients and their families! His therapy made a profound difference in my daughter’s life, and we cannot thank him enough for that.

Ryan's work with our child has been transformative. Ryan has been working in-school with our first-grader for one school year, and we have seen significant improvement in handwriting, impulse control, waiting, planning and organization, body awareness, and sensory self regulation. Plus, our son loves their sessions. We are so grateful to have Ryan on the team!

We worked with Ryan for nearly a year and saw so much growth in our son during this time. We couldn't be more thankful to Ryan for all of his coaching and support!
