Camille Castillo Leach, M.S., OTR/L, has been a practicing occupational therapist for
nearly 13 years. She has 10 years experience in school-based and pediatric occupational
therapy. She received her Bachelor's and Master’s degrees in Occupational Therapy
from San Jose State University and has years of experience with school districts in the
San Jose area. Camille’s professional emphasis is on collaborative treatment in the
natural environment. She feels that it is of utmost importance to equip families with
the tools they need to create an environment to assist children in succeeding in accessing
their world. “OT time” can be everyday across environments in addition to clinic time.
This means lots of education and communication with all of the child’s caregivers and
teachers.
Somehow, Camille has a life outside of OT! She lives in charming Campbell, with her
husband Jon, their beautiful daughter Daphne, and their dog Blue. Camille is involved in
the children’s ministry at her church, loves to cook (and eat) good Italian food, and hike
on the beautiful California Coast with Jon, Daphne, and Blue.
