Our Story
Born from Passion & Care
While working together, a shared dream brought us to consider a different way of supporting families - a dream where therapy services went beyond the basics, focusing truly on what matters most to families. Both Meghan and Mary have extensive pediatric experience and have been offering virtual care in Alberta, now expanding to help families in Saskatchewan. At M&M Therapy, every step we've taken in shaping our service has been based on our experiences as therapists, mothers, wives and workers. We strive to create an environment where any familiy can feel free to share their goals and dreams.
Another reason we chose a virtual platform is that families were able to choose how, when and where they wanted to receive service. We were able to be responsive in the moment to provide the best care.
Why We Care
At M&M Therapy, every patient's journey matters to us. Not only are we occupational therapists but more importantly, we are moms. We've had to navigate healthcare systems with our children, fitting our lives around appointments and trying to manage a regular family life.
That brought us to consider a virtual platform and offering appointments in the evenings and weekends. Families also have options on how they want to receive care and not stuck in pre-conceived scheduled appointments. You can choose how you want to interact with us, anything from emails, phone calls or regular virtual visits. We also know that life happens and your therapy journey may be put on hold. Not to worry, just let us know and feel free to connect when the timing is right for you.
