Where It All Begins:
Meet The Founder

Kelly Wetherbee

OTR/L, SWC, DMI, Board-certified

When I founded Wetherbee Pediatric Therapy, my goal was to create a place where children could thrive in a soothing, purposefully designed environment that meets them and their families where they are. I wanted to build a clinic that combines cutting-edge neurorehabilitation technology with a multi-modal, holistic approach, while keeping a strong focus on each child’s social-emotional needs.

Starting Wetherbee was about more than offering therapy; it was about fostering a community of care, collaboration, and encouragement. I envisioned a space where families could walk in feeling supported, where therapists could innovate and provide individualized care, and where every child could experience progress in a nurturing, joyful environment. Watching children overcome challenges, celebrate milestones, and grow in confidence is the heart of why I created this clinic — and it continues to inspire every step we take as a team.
