Morgan Backes, MS, OTR/L

Morgan Backes received her bachelor’s degree in human development and family studies from IU in 2014 and her Master of Science in occupational therapy degree from IUPUI in 2016. She started working for PSA in 2016 following her graduation and board exam. Morgan chose to work in early intervention because she values working with children in their home environment and being able to include caregivers every step of the way. She has worked with children to increase their independence with sensory regulation, eating, fine motor milestones, and daily routines. Morgan enjoys finding creative ways to help expand a child’s diet, incorporating household items in play, and helping families create strategies to help make day to day routines easier. Morgan lives in Zionsville with her husband, 3 kids, and dog. In her free time, she enjoys making new memories with her kids, participating in book club with her college friends, running, and attending IU sporting events.
