Our Team
Alyssa Farrow, OTR
Hi y’all! I am a co-founder of Wish! I’m from Salado, Texas. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Harding University and a Master’s degree in Occupational Therapy from the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB). I have received additional training in The AEIOU Systematic Approach to Pediatric Feeding (sensory-based feeding), Learning Without Tears (K-5th grade handwriting), Neuroscience and Self-regulation Techniques for Kids with Autism, ADHD & Sensory Disorders, Pediatric Neurodevelopmental Disorders, Pediatric Yoga, and more. Throughout my career, I have provided occupational therapy services in multiple settings including out patient, home health, and school services to children.
I am passionate about finding joy in the little things and enjoy assisting my patients and their loved ones in progressing towards their dreams and goals. My therapy style is designed to modify activities and provide creative interventions to achieve a child’s goals through functional play. It brings me joy to watch kids giggle, have fun, and improve their independence in meaningful play and everyday tasks.
In my free time, I enjoy paddle boarding, yoga, cycling, concerts, reading, trying new restaurants, and spending time with my friends and family!

Hi there! I’m an occupational therapist with a heart full of passion for helping others and pediatrics is where I truly thrive! I’m obsessed with all things sensory processing and love creating fun, meaningful ways to help kids/teens navigate their sensory worlds. My mission is to empower individuals to reach their fullest potential, whether it’s helping little ones master their milestones or guiding young adults with intellectual differences to discover new skills. Before becoming an OT, I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Florida International University and an Master’s in Occupational Therapy from the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences. Along the way, I’ve worked as a behavioral therapist for kiddos and an instructor for adults with developmental differences, which shaped my dedication to meeting people where they are and celebrating every achievement.
Outside of my OT world, I live for creativity and adventure! I love getting crafty with arts and crafts, exploring new destinations with my fiancé, indoor cycling, and hosting epic parties filled with laughter and good vibes. My work and play are driven by the same belief: every person has the potential for something extraordinary, and I love being a part of their journey to get there!

Hi! I’m a passionate occupational therapist who loves working with children and helping them develop the skills they need to thrive in everyday life. With a Bachelor’s in Kinesiology - Health and Fitness from Texas Christian University and a Doctorate degree in Occupational Therapy, I’ve always been drawn to movement, play, and hands-on learning.I believe that every child has unique strengths and potential, and my goal is to create a supportive and engaging environment that helps them build confidence, independence, and joy in their daily activities.
My experience in adaptive sports and sensory regulation has shaped my approach, allowing me to design creative, individualized interventions that are both effective and fun. I love using movement, play, and meaningful activities to help children improve motor skills, sensory processing, and self-care abilities in a way that feels natural and empowering. There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing a child make progress, gain new skills, and feel proud of themselves! In my free time you can find me coaching or playing beach volleyball, exercising, going on an adventure, or spending time outdoors with my goldendoodle Jasper!
Lindsey Robertson, OTR
Hi everyone! Originally from Southern California, I hold a Bachelor of Science in Applied Learning & Development from The University of Texas (Hook ‘em horns!) and a Master’s degree in Occupational Therapy from the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences. I bring five years of experience as a special education teacher, supporting the unique needs of students with disabilities in elementary and high school settings. In this role, I focused on fostering independence by equipping students with the daily living skills and confidence they need to thrive, both in and outside the classroom.
As a pediatric occupational therapist, I am passionate about empowering children to improve their independence as well as their self-esteem through play and everyday activities. I love finding “glimmers”—those small moments of positivity—in each session as I guide children toward achieving their meaningful goals. I also value educating parents on supporting their child’s development, prioritizing collaborative communication to ensure families feel confident and supported throughout the therapeutic process.
In my free time, I enjoy running, hiking, cooking, drinking coffee, exploring new restaurants, and spending time with my fiancé and our wiener dog, Grizz!
Jena Krohn, OTR
Hello! I am a proud co-owner of Wish! I’m a native to the Austin area and grew up in Round Rock, Texas. I graduated from Texas A&M University with a Bachelor’s in Community Health and received my Master’s in Occupational Therapy from The University of Texas Medical Branch. I have certifications in Learning Without Tears (handwriting for K-5th grade), Neuroscience and Self-regulation Techniques for Kids with Autism, ADHD & Sensory Disorders, Pediatric Feeding Disorders, and more. I’ve wanted to be a pediatric occupational therapist since high school and have spent my career in pediatric settings including clinical, public school, and home health.
I love working with children as it allows me to be playful and active. I enjoy discovering what makes each child unique and brings them joy, then creating ways to build that into therapy through play. There’s nothing better than seeing a child grow in their independence and self-esteem by accomplishing meaningful tasks and activities. I cherish the relationships and trust I build with my kiddos’ families and am flexible and collaborative, as no one knows their child better. I foster a positive, comfortable, and meaningful environment for all those involved.
In my spare time, you can find me out running, playing pickleball, or outdoors in the sunshine. I love to eat good food and dance to fun music. I am blessed with an amazing husband, our son, loving friends and family, and two silly cats, Benjamin and Nova.
