Christina Whitley, M.S., OTR/L, is a licensed 
specializing in early intervention and pediatric care. She earned both her bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science (2017) and her master’s degree in Occupational Therapy (2019) from Lenoir-Rhyne University.
She holds certifications and training in the SOS Approach to Feeding, North Carolina Infant-Toddler Program (ITP) PiiP training, and the CDSA parent coaching model. Her clinical focus is on children from birth to age three, supporting families through individualized, developmentally appropriate, and play-based intervention.
What she loves most about pediatric OT is the variety each day brings—whether it’s helping children learn to play, eat, move, or engage with others. She finds deep fulfillment in empowering children and their families to improve their overall quality of life.
When she’s not working, she enjoys traveling with her husband and two daughters. She’s gone scuba diving in Mexico (a mix between snorkeling and scuba diving!) and hiked to a 400-foot waterfall in Hawaii
