Meet Our Team
Angela M. Goudschaal, MOTR/L, Clinical Director
Angie has been working with families and their children with special needs for 20 years. She has training in the comprehensive study of sensory integration, is a DIRFloortime treatment specialist, and has 18 years working with a variety of auditory interventions. Angie is passionate about her work. She believes that play involving joyful interactions between child and therapist and child and caregivers is the key to successfully engaging bodies and minds in the types of deep related and multi-sensory interactions that are the key to unlocking a child's true potential. Angie has completed Yoga teacher training. She draws on this together with her knowledge of the body, spirit, mind, to integrate breathing and stretching techniques into her occupational therapy sessions, giving children the skills they need to self-regulate and co-regulate with their caregivers.
Erin Rosengrant, Medicclaim Consultants, LLC
One of the most stressful parts of arranging therapy for your child is the worry over filing insurance claims and making sure services are covered. You often have broader rights to coverage then your policy might suggest (due to state mandates) so it is worth taking the time to understand what is available to you. Over the years many Attune families have worked with Erin Rosengrant to get this information and remove the stress of dealing with the endless codes and forms involved. Erin’s dedication to her work came from working with her Aunt, a survivor of Acute Leukemia and mother of a special needs child to help families get insurance coverage for their children—in short it is a labor of love, and a testament to her Aunt that keeps Erin working as hard as she does for our families. You can reach Erin at medicclaim@comcast.net or at 847-749-3203.
Testimonial: Before Erin took over my insurance claims I would spend a day a week filing insurance papers and dealing with claims. After she took over I never gave the matter another thought—she gave me my day back. A real blessing.
