Hey there! My name is Rebekah Mohney. I am a licensed and registered pediatric occupational therapist with 10 years of practice. My passion lies in being able to truly help our babies by setting them up for a bright and healthy future. I love problem solving through each child’s individual and unique needs. Every single child that I see matters to me.

I am a loving wife, and mama to 3 beautiful babies and I believe children are God’s gift and blessings to this world. I love helping families gain wisdom and knowledge on how to best help our wonderful children thrive for lifelong health and wellness. I love all things holistic, crunchy, natural and wholesome. I believe our Creator made our bodies incredibly miraculous and the ability to heal comes from Him alone. Therefore, my goal is never to heal, but to facilitate the healing power of our amazing bodies and provide you with the knowledge to best support your own journey.

The meaning and philosophy of Wholistic Foundations

Wholistic Foundations stands for
-Whole body therapy
-Holistic approach
-Foundational

Whole body: As an OT, I assess the whole body and the whole child - physical, social, emotional, behavioral. I look at how their nervous system is regulating. How their sensory systems are impacting them. How their physical musculature, tone and range of motion is impacting movement. Everything in our physical bodies is connected, from tongue to toes.
Holistic: Holistic means I am treating the person using specific strategies that rely solely on their own body responding to movement variations and utilizing a variety of approaches and strategies that are rooted in natural development.
Foundational: Development relies on certain skills to be built on one another to have the most optimal outcome! My goal with every child is to ensure they are obtaining those foundational skills so development can occur naturally.

Therapy is always play based, child led, and functional (meaning we are always therapeutically working on a function through child led play, using a strength based lens). When working with babies, I am very intentional to follow their lead and ensuring nervous system regulation and acceptance of therapy. Each child and family is unique in their needs!
