A pediatric occupational therapist and a product builder, bringing clinical experience and practical software together for pediatric OT practices and families.

Clinical experience meets product thinking

Ueda Cenaj

Pediatric occupational therapist · Founder, Bright Journey Therapy

Ueda is a pediatric occupational therapist and the founder of Bright Journey Therapy. She earned both her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Occupational Therapy from New York University. Originally from New York, she now supports children and families in the Miami–Fort Lauderdale community.

As a parent herself, Ueda understands the joys and challenges of raising a child. That perspective shapes her commitment to partnering with families and making therapy meaningful in everyday life.

Her approach is evidence-based and holistic, with a focus on supporting motor skills, cognitive abilities, sensory processing, and overall well-being. She is fluent in English, Spanish, Albanian, and Portuguese, helping her connect with families from diverse backgrounds.

Communities Ueda serves

Miami and Fort Lauderdale, including Aventura, Hollywood, Sunny Isles, North Miami, and Hallandale.

Adolfo Alcalde

Co-founder and product builder, OT Thinking

Adolfo brings 13+ years of experience in product, operations, and software to OT Thinking. His focus is turning the day-to-day needs of a pediatric OT practice into clear, practical tools.

Seeing the administrative demands of his wife Ueda’s practice helped spark the idea for OT Thinking. Together, they saw an opportunity to bring scheduling, documentation, billing, and parent communication into one place.

Adolfo builds the product around those real workflows, with the goal of giving therapists more time for the children and families they serve.

From practice needs to practical tools

Ueda’s clinical perspective and Adolfo’s product experience guide how OT Thinking supports the work before, during, and after a therapy session.

Why we built OT Thinking

OT Thinking began with the everyday realities of Ueda’s private practice: writing notes, organizing sessions, following up on invoices, and helping families carry therapy goals into the home. Managing that work across separate tools added to an already busy day.

We built OT Thinking to bring those workflows together. Ueda’s experience as a pediatric OT and parent informs what matters in practice; Adolfo’s background in product and operations helps turn those needs into software.

Our aim is to make the administrative side of pediatric OT easier while keeping the therapist’s judgment and the family’s needs at the center.

Why OT Thinking exists

Solo OTs deserve better tools than enterprise software designed for hospitals.

AI should handle paperwork, not replace clinical judgment.

Parent communication shouldn't feel transactional.

Documentation should take minutes, not hours.

Practices need clear information about how their data is handled.

Our mission

"To give pediatric OTs back their most valuable resource: time."
