Hi everyone, my name is Dr. Marisa Milavetz! I am an Occupational Therapist and a dog mom to my labrador retriever, Bodhi. My fiancé and I moved to Austin in 2024 and couldn’t be more excited to be here! My doctoral capstone focused on gaining insight into Occupational Therapy’s role in helping infants with tongue ties who struggle with breastfeeding, and it involved becoming a Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC). After my capstone, I developed a passion and interest in specializing in the infant and pediatric population.

Hi! I’m Tracy Moss, a mom to two boys and a physical therapist with over 20 years of experience, primarily in pediatrics. I love working with infants and children in all stages of development and my passion lies in helping babies and their families during those cherished beginning stages of life. As a mom and a PT, I consider it a privilege to offer positive support, education, and guidance to help families reach their goals with their little one.

I specialize in infant and pediatric development with extensive post-graduate continuing education in pediatrics. I am particularly passionate about helping babies who struggle with feeling good in their body due to colic, gas, and overall body tension. My training includes manual techniques for addressing muscular, fascial, joint, and oral motor restrictions, such as infant massage, myofascial and trigger point release, and craniosacral fascial therapy. Additionally, in my journey to assist families with breastfeeding challenges, I became a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist, which is helpful in providing continuum of care and collaborating with other lactation providers involved in the baby’s care while using my lens from a PT perspective.
