Hi, I'm Riane!

I became an occupational therapist because of moments most people walk right past.

The refrigerator finally covered in art. The monkey bars. The bike. The birthday party invitation. The kid who walks up to someone on the playground and says wanna play? Most people see the moment. I know every step it took to get there — and my favorite part is stepping back so it belongs entirely to you.

I’m Riane Wubbenhorst, OTR/L — a licensed pediatric occupational therapist, Raleigh local, and mom of three. Founder and owner of Tailored OT, a boutique pediatric occupational therapy practice in Raleigh, NC. I specialize in sensory processing, motor development, self-care, handwriting, and early childhood intervention, with a background in neurosurgery and psychological research that informs how seriously I take the evidence behind what I do.

I help children understand themselves and I help caregivers understand their child — because a child’s greatest desire is to belong, and the right support changes everything.

Because childhood isn’t measured in inches. It’s measured in jumps and puddles and wanna play? and I did it — followed by I knew you could.

I collect firsts. This one might be yours.

VISION STATEMENT

My vision for every child, immeasurable “I did it” moments.

My vision for every parent: to reply, “I knew you could.”

What is occupational therapy?

In its simplest form, Occupational Therapy (OT) helps you participate in activities that ‘occupy’ your daily life. Everyone has tasks that they are required to do, want to do, or would like to do. We have roles that we must fulfill. Sometimes, this is hard. My job is to assess why it’s hard and to make it easier. I do this holistically, using current research and evidence to tailor interventions specifically for you and your family. I observe your environment,  your routine, your social context, and the activities themselves to identify existing barriers that limit performance. I work with you to develop the motor, cognitive, and emotional skills you need to meaningfully engage in all of life’s moments.
