Tristen Anderson a pediatric OT providing in-home and community-based therapy services. 

She has 15 years of experience working in private clinics with children, primarily ages 3-12. She has worked in a variety of clinics, mostly in California, with a majority of my experience being with children with sensory processing problems. She is skilled in the areas of sensory processing, self-regulation, fine motor skills, and social emotional development. Relationships are the key to the therapeutic process...both the relationship between the child and the therapist as well as the child and the family.

She is familiar with and have used iLS, a listening program that supports development in many areas and complements OT nicely. Tristen currently is in-network with Pacific Source Community Solutions (both Medicaid and commercial insurance). Pending in-network approval with MODA (hoping to be approved in the next few months). She can also work with clients through private pay.
