"I created Rooted & Ready because Iâve seen how exhausting it can feel when routines fall apart, daily tasks trigger tears, and youâre repeating yourself over and over. This program gives parents the step-by-step tools, guidance, and supportive community I wish every family had."
Hi, Iâm Ashley Montijo, and I help children and families navigate the everyday challenges of school, home, and routines. I specialize in executive function coaching, starting with emotional regulation to help kids build independence while reducing power struggles and frustration.
As an occupational therapist, Iâve worked in schools, homes, and pediatric clinics, supporting neurodiverse children including those with ADHD, autism, sensory processing differences, and executive function challenges. My approach focuses on practical, parent-friendly strategies you can use right away.

My son (ASD/ Autism) received OT services from Ashley in our home. He was having a lot of dysregulation and behaviors at the time. Ashley was always extremely calm and patient with him in dealing with his meltdowns. Not all providers are willing to address behaviors like this that can hinder making progress on other goals.Â
