      Zach Klein, OTR/L, NREMT

      Zach Klein, MS, OTR/L is the founder of Ready for Action Therapy, a pediatric occupational therapy practice serving the Denver metro area. He specializes in movement-based therapy for children with ADHD, sensory processing differences, anxiety, emotional regulation challenges, executive functioning difficulties, and motor coordination needs. Rather than limiting intervention to a traditional clinic, Zach intentionally uses parks, climbing gyms, pools, playgrounds, and community environments to build confidence and develop meaningful skills where children naturally thrive. His background includes exercise science, adaptive sports, wilderness medicine, climbing instruction, and occupational therapy. Zach is passionate about helping therapists move beyond table-top activities to create engaging, evidence-informed interventions that improve participation, self-regulation, and independence in everyday life.

      Title: Beyond the Clinic: Movement-Based Pediatric Occupational Therapy
      Overview: Discover how movement can become one of your most effective treatment tools. This webinar explores practical, evidence-informed strategies for using parks, playgrounds, climbing gyms, pools, and other community environments to address sensory processing, emotional regulation, executive functioning, motor coordination, and confidence. Through clinical examples and immediately applicable intervention ideas, participants will learn how to intentionally design movement experiences that are engaging, goal-directed, and occupation-centered.
