Taleshia Moss, Occupational Therapist

Focus on brain development, trauma, and neuroplasticity 

Born out of healing from her own adverse childhood, Taleshia is an registered occupational therapist with a strnog desire to provide high-quality, robust care to children and families. Her love for children led her to study and research brain development and sensory processing to promote neuroplasticity or rewiring of a child’s brain. Her unique approach utilizes a trauma-informed lens that is play-based and child-led, meeting each child where they are developmentally, cognitively, and emotionally. She firmly believes that each child is created for a purpose and has the potential to lead a productive and successful life when provided with proper interventions such as love and community. She is certified in sensory processing and received rigorous training from the Star Institute in Colorado. Taleshia has practiced in skilled nursing, home health, schools, and outpatient pediatrics. She is a Detroit native, who earned her Master's of Occupational Therapy from Wayne State University. Taleshia oversees pediatric therapy for Shalom Ministries.
