Kathleen Starr is an occupational therapist practicing at The OAS Center, 4204A Adams Avenue in Normal Heights, San Diego, where she provides pediatric occupational therapy services within the 92116 ZIP code's largest multidisciplinary child development hub. The OAS Center houses Specialized Therapy Services, a California Department of Education-approved non-public agency that deploys over 50 occupational therapists, 50 speech-language pathologists, 18 psychologists, and additional physical therapists, audiologists, and behavioral interventionists across its San Diego and Orange County operations. Occupational therapy at the center addresses sensory processing disorders, fine motor skill development, handwriting remediation, self-care task training, and adaptive behavior modification for infants, toddlers, school-aged children, and young adults with developmental disabilities. Psychological evaluations that identify co-occurring behavioral or learning concerns route to practitioners at Empower Child Learning, whose psychoeducational assessments on the same Adams Avenue block produce the diagnostic reports that guide IEP recommendations and inform the occupational therapy treatment plan. The center's sensory integration therapy uses specialized equipment to help children with autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, and developmental coordination disorder process environmental stimuli in ways that reduce behavioral dysregulation during school and home routines. Specialized Therapy Services has operated since 2004, and its non-public agency status allows school districts to contract directly with the center for students whose special education needs exceed the capacity of campus-based therapy programs. Creative expression is a documented therapeutic complement to occupational therapy for pediatric populations, and the structured art programming at Art on 30th provides the fine-motor and cognitive engagement that reinforces in-clinic gains for children working on visual-motor integration. The Adams Avenue office accepts insurance, and the center's multidisciplinary model allows families to access speech therapy, physical therapy, audiology, and occupational therapy in a single facility without coordinating across multiple providers.
