About Me

✨About Faith and Function

Hi, I’m Alicia Clark!
I’m a pediatric occupational therapist, Sensory Design Specialist, Autism Certified provider, and the founder of Faith and Function. As a mother of three beautiful children, I believe deeply that every child is fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). With the right guidance, love, and support, every child can achieve their God-given potential.

Through my therapy practice, sensory home design services, and faith-filled blog, I combine evidence-based strategies with biblical encouragement to help children and families navigate sensory, motor, and developmental challenges with confidence.

✨ Who I Am and How I Can Help
With over 18 years of experience as a licensed occupational therapist, I specialize in: ✅ Sensory Processing & Regulation – Helping children process and respond to sensory input effectively.
✅ Fine & Gross Motor Development – Supporting coordination, strength, and dexterity for daily tasks.
✅ Feeding & Self-Care Skills – Encouraging independence with eating, dressing, and personal care routines.
✅ Social & Emotional Growth – Building self-regulation, attention, and social engagement skills.
✅ Sensory Home Design – Creating calming, functional spaces that promote regulation, confidence, and growth at home.

I hold certifications in Autism Intervention, Therapeutic Listening, and Astronaut Training, giving me advanced tools to support vestibular processing, auditory integration, sensory-motor coordination, and individualized interventions for children with autism, ADHD, sensory processing disorder (SPD), and developmental delays.

At Faith and Function, I approach every child and family with grace, patience, and a commitment to serve, integrating my Christian faith into each step of the journey.

✨ My Backstory: What Led Me Here
For over a decade, I owned and operated Pediatric Therapy, Inc., a thriving pediatric therapy clinic. While I loved the work, I felt called to serve families in a deeper, more faith-centered way.

Through prayer and reflection, I realized my purpose: to blend clinical excellence with spiritual encouragement, empowering families to navigate developmental challenges with faith and confidence.
This calling led me to create Faith and Function — a practice offering occupational therapy, sensory home design services, and faith-based support to families locally, virtually, and worldwide.

✔️ Helped thousands of children master life skills like handwriting, dressing, self-regulation, and social interaction.
✔️ Provided faith-based occupational therapy that empowers families with hope, strategy, and resilience.
✔️ Hosted workshops on sensory processing, fine motor development, feeding skills, and self-regulation strategies.
✔️ Created Faith and Function to blend pediatric expertise with spiritual encouragement.
