Annabelle Hope, OT
Annabelle Hope earned her Bachelor's degree in Exercise Science from Missouri State University and her Master's degree in Occupational Therapy from Rockhurst University. She specializes in pediatrics, sports, hands, and orthopedics of the upper extremity.
Annabelle enjoys treating patients because she loves building relationships with each patient and getting to know them as individuals. She uses personal details in therapy for motivation and adapts preferred activities to suit new diagnoses or post-operative conditions. She values trust and rapport in therapy, which often leads to patients feeling comfortable enough to open up and trust her. Through these connections, Annabelle learns new things from her patients, gaining insights into different cultures and everyday life hacks.
Outside of the clinic, Annabelle enjoys spending time with friends and her dog, hiking, exercising, traveling, watching Law & Order, and trying new restaurants.
