Ms. Mateus, Occupational Therapist

Welcome to OT at Davis Thayer!

It is easiest to contact me via e-mail at: mateusl@franklin.k12.ma.us

I have lived in Franklin since 1990. I live with my husband, 3 children,2 dogs (CiCi & Mallory) and 2 kittens (Lucky & Charm). It is a pleasure to work with children and their families in my own community. I spend some of my leisure time working with children in various community programs and gardening.

My role as a School Occupational Therapist is to look at various areas that significantly impact a child's ability to be successful at school. Areas of testing include the following:

Behavior/Attention
Sitting Posture
Reflexes
Upper Extremity Strength
Joint Stability
Equilibrium Reactions
Balance
Visual Tracking
Sensory
Coordination
Motor Planning
Ability to Regulate Force
Fine Motor Control
Self-Help Skills
Eye hand Coordination
