Skilled Providers
Zion Dixon, OTR/L and Owner
Occupational Therapist
I am a graduate with a Master’s in Occupational Therapy from Idaho State University. I was born and raised in North Idaho, graduating from Lake City High School in Coeur d’Alene. I then went on to play football and receive my Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science and Health from the University of Idaho prior to beginning graduate school. I have experience working as Habilitative Support with individuals with developmental disabilities, experience in pediatric occupational therapy clinics in the North Idaho region and experience working as a staff member at Specialized Needs Recreation (SNR) in Coeur d’Alene. Prior to this, I worked as an occupational therapist at a Skilled Nursing Facility as well as in the McCall-Donnelly School District. I am excited to begin my own journey to provide occupational therapy services to teen and adult individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities to help all people achieve their goals and dreams-to turn hopeless into hope, can’t into can and impossible into possible.
