Amy Ukleja loves living at the edge of discovery—finding each child’s just right challenge, seeing the light in their eyes when they connect to their bodies and their environments in unique and deeply needed ways or a parent’s nod of new understanding when the puzzle of a sensory struggle is finally solved.

In 2015, she completed a 3-month intensive advanced training in Ayres Sensory Integration through USC/WPS and is certified to complete the Sensory Integration and Praxis Tests (SIPT) and Evaluation of Ayres Sensory Integration (EASI). In her spare time, you might find Amy exploring in the trees, playing in parks or at the beach, writing in tea shops, or cooking up yummy new creations to share at home.
