Telehealth
Telehealth services are provided remotely through video conferencing. The occupational therapist will work with a patient one-on-one to assess impairments, provide education, and offer exercises.
Telehealth therapy can be a great option for patients. Some benefits include:
Accessibility: Patients can receive care from home.
Continuity of care: Patients can continue to receive care when having health issues that prevent traveling to a clinic.
Patient engagement: Telehealth can enhance patient engagement. There are fewer distractions than in a busy clinic.
Cost $125 for OT Eval, $100 for 60 min OT session, $50 for 30 min OT session. Texas Based Patients Only
Occupational therapy services are provided to help stroke patients improve arm movement, upper extremity and hand coordination, visual perceptual disorders, balance, and activities of daily living (e.g. dressing, grooming, cleaning, cooking, yard work, typing, writing, work skills, etc.)

She can provide personal training services to clients who have been discharged from therapy and would like to continue a fitness routine at home. Please note that personal training services are not therapy services and are only for those who have been released by their MD to participate in a fitness program.
Personal training services can enhance muscular strength/endurance, flexibility, cardiorespiratory fitness, and any of the motor skill related components of physical fitness (i.e., balance, coordination, power, agility, speed, and reaction time). Karen’s focus is on working with clients who are post-therapy.

LSVT BIG® is a 4 week program consisting of an evaluation and 16 one-on-one treatment sessions for people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and other neurological diagnoses.
LSVT BIG trains people with PD to move their body more normally through increasing their amplitude/effort level with exercise, functional tasks, and walking. Treatment trains a person to “recalibrate” their effort level and how and when to apply that extra effort to produce bigger motions – more like the movements of everyone around them.
