I had the pleasure of working with Genevieve and she cared for her patients as if they were one of her own. Her skillful and compassionate approach to each person makes challenges manageable. Great things are possible with the right person in your corner. Thank you, Genevieve.

I was fortunate for the opportunity to work alongside Genevieve in the pediatric setting. She is talented, creative and deeply knowledgeable in regards to her treatment plans. However where she really makes a difference is her ability to form connections with her patients. The bonds she creates with her patients help them to see the value in the hard work, and remain motivated the meet their rehab goals. I would highly recommend her to any friend or family member.

Bi-Polar Girl


Approved Maryland Medicaid Provider 

Genevieve Engleman is an Occupational Therapist providing therapeutic support, built upon empathy, compassion and non-judgmental consideration of everyone's unique situations in life. Her private virtual practice (TheRemoteOT.com) offers client centered, custom treatment plans which span across the lifespan from the NICU to geriatric populations and every age in between. She is a real nerd at heart and loves expanding her knowledge through the completion of way too many continuing education courses to stay abreast of all the latest intervention strategies and most recent research and has achieved specialty recognition from NBCOT in pediatrics and orthopedics for her studies. Genevieve comes from a vast background in the healthcare system from Miami to Maryland and previously served as the Clinical Executive Associate for a large statewide practice in Rhode Island. She is originally from Canada and believes quality healthcare is a human right and structures her private practice to prevent cost from ever being a barrier to quality healthcare. She enjoys attending bluegrass and folk music festivals with her husband, Thomas, and three children Hank, Beau & Eden. She is currently serving as the secretary of the Maryland Occupational Therapy Association (MOTA) for the 2023-2026.

What is Occupational Therapy?

Occupational therapy is the only profession that helps people across the lifespan to do the things they want and need to do through the therapeutic use of daily activities (occupations).

Occupational therapy practitioners enable people of all ages to live life to its fullest by helping them promote health, and prevent—or live better with—injury, illness, or disability. 

Common occupational therapy interventions include helping children with disabilities to participate fully in school and social situations, helping people recovering from injury to regain skills, and providing supports for older adults experiencing physical and cognitive changes. Occupational therapy services typically include:
  • an individualized evaluation, during which the client/family and occupational therapist determine the person’s goals,
  • customized intervention to improve the person’s ability to perform daily activities and reach the goals, and
  • an outcomes evaluation to ensure that the goals are being met and/or make changes to the intervention plan. 

Occupational therapy practitioners have a holistic perspective, in which the focus is on adapting the environment and/or task to fit the person, and the person is an integral part of the therapy team. It is an evidence-based practice deeply rooted in science (AOTA.org). 

Mental Health, Mental Illness, and Everyday Functioning 

Occupational therapy practitioners provide services to people across the lifespan who experience a range of mental health and ill health based on genetic predisposition and/or life stressors (e.g., disability, injury, trauma). The continuum of mental health can range from acute mental illness or mental health challenges at one end, to mentally healthy and flourishing at the other (Keyes, 2007). Mental health is not merely the absence of mental illness, but the presence of a cluster of characteristics including positive affect, positive psychological and social functioning, and the ability to adapt to change and cope with life challenges (Keyes, 2007; U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 1999). People who are mentally healthy, even with the presence of an identified mental illness, function better in everyday life and engage in activities to maintain health (Keyes, 2007; Rasciute & Downward, 2010; Sabatini, 2011). Because of the dynamic nature of mental health and mental ill health in a person’s life, occupational therapy practitioners tune into and address the mental health needs of all clients in all practice settings.

When might a child need OT?
  • Delay in fine or gross motor milestones (rolling, sitting, crawling, feeding, etc.)
  • Bilateral coordination struggles (cutting, handwriting, dressing)
  • Balance (clumsy) or decreased hand-eye coordination 
  • Sensitivities to touch, noise, smell, light, and/or movement
  • Abnormal postures or positioning (W-sitting on the floor, slouching in a chair, always propped with upper extremity to provide support)
  • Seeking of rough housing or constant movement
  • Challenges with sibling interactions or social skills with peers
  • Challenges with attention to tasks or following directions

With internet access and free videoconferencing software, a highly-qualified occupational therapist is just a click away to visit your child virtually at home or in the classroom.
