Courtney Dickinson
Courtney Dickinson has been a pediatric OT for the past 14 years. She lives in Wilmington, NC with her wonderful husband and 2 handsome boys. She and her family have been in Wilmington for the past 6 years and absolutely love the beach life! They have recently moved so they are about a 5 minute drive to Carolina beach, with high hopes one day of actually living on the beach! Courtney’s boys are 2 and 6, so they keep her very busy, but she and her husband wouldn’t have it any other way.
Courtney graduated from the University of Buffalo (SUNY) in 2002 with a BS in Occupational Therapy. After graduating, she worked in the school district in Rochester, NY for 2 years and also did some part-time work in a sensory clinic. In 2004 she moved to Raleigh, North Carolina where she worked in a private pediatric clinic for 6 years. She learned a lot during that time and really grew as a therapist. In 2010, she moved to Wilmington to be closer to the beach and has been at her current job since then, a pediatric clinic where she does a combination of clinic-based, home-based and some school-based therapy. Courtney loves the diversity of her current job. Her background is heavy in sensory integration. She has her SIPT certification and has attended many other sensory processing courses over the years. Courtney loves OT and pediatrics and feels lucky to have found such an awesome profession!
