Get to know Danielle Vest, MOT, OTR/L, C/NDT
Danielle has worked as a pediatric occupational therapist since 2014 in private outpatient clinics, home health and school-based practice. In 2018, she joined Texas Children’s Hospital at the Texas Medical Center, where she was involved in the outpatient cardiopulmonary team, Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) program and acute outpatient rehabilitation program (AORP). Her interest in the treatment of neuromuscular dysfunction led her to pursue a certification in neuro-developmental treatment (NDT) in 2022. She transferred to the North Austin Campus for its opening in 2024 and is excited to provide services to the Austin community.
