Kris has extensive background in treating children with neurological disabilities. Her initial primary focus was treating children with cerebral palsy. Over the past 15 years she has included in her practice children with Autism and Autistic Spectrum Disorders, genetic disorders including Down Syndrome, Cri du Chat, spinabifida, and muscular dystrophies to name a few. Children with sensory dysfunction disorders and adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis are also treated at the clinic.

Ride to Walk is a therapeutic horseback-riding program, also founded by Kris. She is presently the Executive Director of the program and also serves as one of its therapists. The program provides great joy and pleasure for Kris as she can watch the fruits of the therapists’ efforts in the clinic put into functional play-”children’s play is their work.” For more information on the riding program we invite you to visit our web site at www.ridetowalk.org.
