Fed Up with Leah Vitale, MOT OTR/L, CLC

Leah Vitale MOT, OTR/L, CLC received her Masters of Occupational Therapy from James Madison University in 2010. She is a certified lactation counselor and maintains a NY state license as well as a national certification and membership with the American Occupational Therapy Association and National Association for Neonatal Therapist.

She brings over ten years of experience, and has dedicated herself to pediatric occupational therapy treating children of all ages in a variety of settings. Her clinical skills with the pediatric population include but are not limited to premature infants, neonatal feeding therapy, neurodevelopmental care, sensory processing disorder, complex medical conditions and lactation support.

As a new mother herself, Leah realized the lack of support in newborn feeding and overall developmental guidance. It is her goal to support the caregiver-baby dyad and facilitate optimal bonding to foster a loving and nurturing relationship through all stages of development. Her approach is holistic and provides families with strategies they can incorporate into their daily lives.
