I’m Talicia High, MOT, OTR and Clinical Director of the Coppell clinic. I joined Monkey Mouths in 2021 as an occupational therapist. I earned my bachelor’s degree from Hardin Simmons University and my master's degree from Texas Woman’s University. Prior to Monkey Mouths, I worked in home health, inpatient rehab and private practice settings.

As an occupational therapist, I believe every person especially children have a right to accomplish their dreams and goals and participate in meaningful activities. I strive to provide my families with the tools necessary to meet their goals, as well as empower them to advocate for their needs and wants.

In my free time, you can find me watching and playing sports, reading, traveling, listening to music, and spending time with my family.
