Hanna Cubra
My first training and professional career was as a ballet, jazz and modern dancer. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Family Studies and a master’s in Occupational Therapy (MOTR/L). These educational platforms have been the foundation of my on-going studies and training, including: family systems theory, child development, infant mental health, reflex integration, brain-based movement approaches, developmental movement, sensory integration, cranio-sacral therapy and yoga.
I have been providing occupational therapy to children and adults with various developmental disabilities for fifteen years.
I have extensive experience providing Early Intervention services for children who have special needs from birth through age 3, through the Family Infant Toddler program of New Mexico. I have a certification in Infant Mental Health and I believe that a relationship-based approach is the foundation for all development, young and old. My purpose is to support people of all ages & abilities, experience growth and development on multiple levels through the joy of movement.
