Thaila Schug, OTD, OTR/L
Thaila has her clinical doctorate in occupational therapy and practices here at Sensational Kids. She graduated with her undergraduate degree from the University of Central Florida with honors and went on to complete her doctorate at the University of Florida for occupational therapy. Thaila completed a program called INSPIRE that gave her more clinical experience and knowledge in early intervention (children under 3) and is certified in the Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) program where she helps individuals with tics manage them. Thaila has always been drawn to pediatric occupational therapy to help children achieve independence in their day to day activities. Building relationships with her patients and their families and seeing their progress and confidence build over time has always been fulfilling to her.
Thaila is originally from St. Petersburg, FL and lives with her husband and her dog here in Augusta. In her free time, she loves to read, write children's books for fun, visit Disney, and travel
