"Alana Murphy has been an invaluable part of my daughter's life. When I met Alana my daughter was an infant and I was a confused and scared parent. Alana was loving, caring, supportive and attentive. She instilled and exuded confidence in my daughter and me, and made me feel that there was nothing that my daughter couldn't do. Whenever I had a question, Alana not only took the time to give an answer, but she also followed it up with examples of how to play and practice. Every skill or task she introduced my daughter to was well thought out, creative and age appropriate. Bottom line, no matter what I say, I won't be able to describe the eternal gratitude I feel towards Alana. Her help and constant support have not only set my daughter on a path to success, but have also helped us in all areas of our lives. Alana will always hold a special place in my heart.” -JP

“We are so grateful to Alana for her amazing work with my five-year-old son, who has Autism and struggles with many OT-related tasks. Alana quickly became an integral part of our team. With humor, creativity, and considerable skill, she has guided E. to move forward in the development of his fine motor and adaptive skills.
Alana thinks about the big picture and can expertly outline goals as well as consider any underlying issues and how they can best be addressed. She is very collaborative and eager to communicate with E’s teachers and therapists. She happily shares her expertise with us so that we can reinforce new skills at home. We are excited to see E’s progress, and he is so proud of his new abilities.”-AL

"As first time parents and parents to a special needs child we were looking to buildout a specialized team of doctors and therapists to support our daughter and family. Alana has been a key component to our team and support network as we strive to ensure that our daughter is able to achieve her full potential.
Alana is energetic and full of wonderful ideas. She brought creativity and variety to every session that my daughter had with her over the course of three years. She would always approach each session with a positive attitude, adapting to my daughter’s appetite for play and mood on any given day. She was always able to managed to strike a balance of playfulness while getting my daughter to try new and challenging things. She was a great communicator with us as parents as well as our different caregivers."

“Alana is the most dedicated, hard-working and personable occupational therapist. My son was diagnosed with left-hemiplegia cerebral palsy at 7 months old. Alana saw him from 9 months old to 3 years old and during that time not only did he make tremendous improvements, but I saw a true relationship between him and Alana. She is amazing at building rapport and earning trust (from both parents and kids). She always found a way to work us into her schedule, even coming early mornings and working with us virtually at the beginning of covid. Alana always goes the extra mile - sends us follow up texts with exercises and activities we could do at home, links to objects or toys that could help our son and would talk us through any issues she saw in a way that was clear and easy for us non-therapists to understand. Her energy and enthusiasm are unparalleled and she is such a skilled therapist that sometimes our jaws would drop when we saw the hard-won progress she was able to make with our son. My husband and I literally cried on her last day with us. "

"Alana has been one of the most monumental people in my son’s physical development. She has been working with my 10 month old, 35 week preemie, son for the past 6 weeks, and yesterday he army crawled for the first time! I was so happy and thankful I could have cried. My son actually enjoys his time with her, unlike other therapists we’ve worked with, and so has my family. She has taught not only my son, but me how to help him move and thrive. Sadly we moved but are so committed to Alana and her help that we’re trying virtual sessions to keep her working with my son. I couldn’t ask for a better support person who truly makes a difference in my child’s well-being."
