Devina King is a licensed pediatric occupational therapist, parenting coach, author, and neurodiversity advocate. As the founder of Queen Diva's Playhouse, LLC, she equips parents, educators, and clinicians with trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming, and brain-based strategies to help children build emotional regulation, resilience, and authentic relationships. Her approach blends lived experience with clinical expertise, decoding behavior and fostering regulation from the nervous system up to create environments where every child can thrive.

With over a decade of experience in pediatric occupational therapy, Devina has worked in a variety of settings, including outpatient clinics, early intervention, and home-based services. She is an Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist, ADHD Rehabilitation Service Provider, and an AOTA-approved CEU provider. Through her practice, courses, writing, and consulting, she empowers parents and professionals to replace punishment with co-regulation strategies, reduce power struggles, and teach children self-control and emotional skills in real-world situations.

Devina’s mission is deeply personal: her experiences as a parent and an autistic adult inform her neurodiversity-affirming framework, ensuring that her guidance is both empathetic and practical. She is also a curriculum designer and adjunct faculty member, developing occupational therapy courses that implement evidence-based standards. Through her work, Devina continues to advocate for children, guiding families and professionals toward creating calm, collaborative routines that support every child’s growth and flourishing.
