About Kimberly Suzanne Johnson, M.S.O.T., OTR/L, C/NDT

Kimberly holds advanced training in Neuro-Developmental Treatment (C/NDT) and extensive infant handling techniques. She specializes in supporting infants with torticollis, tethered oral tissues (TOT), feeding and oral-motor development, and breastfeeding or bottle-feeding challenges.

Her additional clinical training includes sensory integration, craniosacral and biodynamic therapy, and sound-based programs such as Therapeutic Listening, Samonas, InTime, and The Listening Program. She is also certified in Kinesio Taping and Interactive Metronome. Kimberly is especially sought after for her holistic approach to infant development—guiding families through early challenges with motor skills, oral function, and regulation to lay the foundation for lifelong success.

Throughout her career, Kimberly has worked with children across a wide range of diagnoses, including:

• Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

• Cerebral Palsy (CP)

• Prematurity

• Tethered Oral Tissues (TOT)

• Down Syndrome

• Rare genetic conditions

• Hypotonia

• Sensory integration dysfunction

• Fine motor skill difficulties

• ADHD

• Developmental delays

• Executive functioning challenges

• Visual processing delays

• Anxiety

• Children recovering from burns or cancer treatment

This breadth of experience allows her to adapt therapy to each child’s unique strengths and challenges.

In addition to her clinical work, Kimberly has served as a clinical instructor for both local and national universities, mentoring dozens of occupational therapy students and contributing to the growth of the next generation of practitioners. She also brings extensive experience with Independent Educational Evaluations (IEEs) and Individualized Education Program (IEP) creation—having participated from both sides of the table as a clinician and as a parent. This dual perspective allows her to approach school-based concerns with empathy, advocacy, and a deep understanding of the challenges families face in educational settings.

Kimberly’s therapy style is engaging, meaningful, and family-centered. She empowers children to discover their strengths while equipping parents with strategies that fit naturally into daily routines. From infants with torticollis and TOT to school-aged children needing sensory, motor, executive functioning, or academic support, she provides individualized, evidence-based care that fosters growth, resilience, and independence.

Outside of her professional role, Kimberly treasures time with her husband and is a proud mother of four children. She enjoys attending CCV, volunteering, reading, traveling, watching the ocean, and working through a good puzzle—whether it’s Sudoku, interlocking challenges, or escape mazes.
