I’m Anjuli Bala, OTR/L and I joined Monkey Mouths in 2020. I earned my undergraduate degree from Trinity College, a Master of Arts in Teaching: Elementary Special Education from American University and a Master’s in Occupational Therapy from Texas Woman’s University. Prior to working at Monkey Mouths, I spent the past 5 years working in a neurorehabilitation outpatient clinic and in pediatric private practice. My first career was as a Special Education teacher in Washington DC.

I combine all these different skill sets to ensure that I am a well-rounded therapist that can guide children and families to achieve their goals. I am highly creative and love thinking outside the box! I strive to help children be as independent as possible at home, school and in the community.

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, cooking, and DIY craft projects. I am always working on creating something fun!

As an OTR/L with over 5 years of experience, I have training and specialization in the following:

• Handwriting Without Tears
• Brain Gym
• NDT Techniques
• Interactive Metronome
