About
Welcome!
I’m Dr. Johnna Belkiewitz, OTD, MAT, OTR (She/Her). As a former teacher and current occupational therapist, my mission is to help YOU increase your capacity for doing what you love in life. I feel strongly that, provided access to the right tools, each of us is capable of building habits, routines, and role competence that align with our greatest good.
My expertise is in trauma-informed pediatric and gender affirming occupational therapy practices. I have experience working in community-based, school-based, early intervention, gender health, substance use recovery, qualitative research, and doctoral-level teaching settings. Please enjoy all that’s available on OT-Spot.com, and don’t hesitate to reach out. Cheers!
