Micah is without doubt a very experienced and outstanding occupational therapist who has helped our daughter immensely over the past couple of years. At the outset Micah took time to read reports, understand needs, listen to our concerns and build a great personal relationship with our daughter. The highly personalised therapy exercises and games were carefully tailored to meet our daughter's needs and preferences to ensure an engaged and productive sessions. Through Micah's creativity she has been able to develop unique and effective interventions and having Micah as part of the support network for our daughter has been a godsend.

We took our three year old son to see Micah following recommendation from our speech and language therapist. Micah immediately made him feel welcome, engaging him in fun and informative activities. He looked forward to all of our sessions with her as a result. Micah also kept us constantly in the loop in terms of what each activity would tell us about his needs and helped us to see different behavioural traits. After each session, she gave a summary of her observations and gave us some amazing tools to help us support our son with his ongoing needs. I would definitely recommend Micah to anyone looking for Occupational Therapy for their young children.

Micah is a wonderful therapist. She is very patient with my son. He really loves her and looks forward to seeing her each week. She is highly skilled and very knowledgable, and always explains exercises to me, which is very helpful -- so I can attempt to repeat them or riff on them at home. She is also very organized and responsive.

I can't recommend Little BEANS Therapy highly enough! We first approached Micah to carry out assessments for our boys as part of their EHCP process. The assessments were incredibly thorough and detailed, clearly outlining both the provisions and ongoing therapy needs. This was such a relief, especially after the Local Authority’s EHC needs assessment, which had fallen far short of what was needed. Initially, we didn’t plan to use Little BEANS for the ongoing therapy, as it meant a one-hour journey each way every week. But after speaking with other therapists recommended by the Council, it quickly became clear that none offered the same level of expertise or understanding. Suddenly, the long drive didn’t matter, it was worth it to ensure our children received the right therapeutic approach and support. From the very first sessions, our boys loved going to therapy. The care and support provided not just for them, but for us as parents, has been absolutely invaluable. We’re so grateful for everything and wish Micah all the very best for the future!

Micah helped lift our child out of a severe burnout. We could not be more grateful for the patience, kindness and understanding she displayed in the time she spent with our son. Micah has wonderful attention to detail, is open minded and exemplifies child-led therapy. She was extremely accommodating and professional. Her written report was very comprehensive and insightful. We could not recommend more.

Micah supported our son with his sensory integration needs for 1 year, starting when he was 2. A review won’t do justice to the amazing work Micah did and what a wonderful person she is! Our son not only benefited hugely from working with Micah but he always looked forward to her sessions and loved every minute of their time together. Micah worked with him at home and in his nursery environment, with great results in both environments. Micah is fantastic at understanding the individual child’s strength and weaknesses and adapting the therapy to suit them. Micah made all of us feel so comfortable and was brilliant at communicating her plan and approach. I cannot recommend Micah enough and will always be grateful for her wonderful caring approach as much as the great outcomes!

We could not be more grateful to Micah for the impact she has made on our whole family through her work with our daughter. We first spoke to Micah when we knew our daughter was facing challenges with sensory processing disorder (huge sensitivity to certain clothes) and also other behavioural symptoms that we didn't understand at the time and so had no idea how to start addressing. Micah had an upfront consultation call with us and immediately gave us more peace of mind and some understanding of what was potentially going on. She was very clear with next steps and a suggested way forward which we followed. She held sessions with her every week, alternating between home and school (which was well received at the school too) and we started noticing changes very quickly. We have been on a huge journey as a family, in relation to these challenges, guided ably and gently by Micah and after 2 course of sessions, we are in a totally different place with our daughter. She is much happier, calmer, more able to focus and we have learned strategies as a family that help our daughter (and all of us!) on a daily basis. One of the biggest things we have gained from Micah is clarity and understanding of very complex concepts and what is going on for our daughter so we can approach things from a place of understanding and empathy rather than confusion and fear. This has been as valuable as the practical work that Micah has done to help her, from which we have seen huge progress. Would recommend her in a heartbeat and happy to chat to anyone who would like to hear more of our journey. Lisa

Micah was a very knowledgeable and helpful OT to my school. She worked well with the children, and always went above and beyond in the professional reports that she produced for us. She would endeavour to attend EHCP review meetings and was beginning to build a good rapport with families before she had to move on from us. Sorry she had to leave.

From the very first session our son had with Micah he formed a very special bond with her. This was surprising at the time as our son, who was diagnosed with ASD really struggled to form such relationships. Whilst under the care of Micah we noticed a significant and positive change in our son's health and wellbeing. He was much calmer, alert and focused at school and home. Our son looked forward to every OT session he had with Micah with anticipation and he always left smiling. Micah is truly an amazing OT, an exemplar of professionalism and positivity. As an individual, is dedicated, trustworthy, caring and has an immense passion to help and support children with special needs. She also ensures that parents are well supported too and this is such an integral part of the support she provides as we learnt so much from her. Whenever we were unsure or had concerns, Micah offered a number of solutions to try and support our son. She always gave detailed feedback, listened to our concerns and provided guidance when required with her expertise. Micah has an excellent understanding of OT, she is innovative with her ideas and will ensure that plans and programmes are tailored specifically to the needs of the child. She explores ideas that are creative and adapts to situations which at times were challenging. Also Micah's report writing is to an exceptional standard, very detailed and ensured that our son acquired the correct level of specialist provisions. We all truly miss Micah and she left a lasting impression on our son, who always smiles when he hears her name. We are truly blessed to have had the opportunity to be supported by Micah and unreservedly recommend her to any family.
