I am a passionate therapist who prioritises building strong therapeutic relationships with clients and caregivers. Using evidence-based and a person-centered approach is central to my practice. I use a client's strengths, interests, and inner motivations to help them develop new skills and overcome barriers to their participation in daily routines. 

​

Whilst I support children to develop key skills, I also heavily ground my practice on the Social Model of Disability. This means that I believe our community environments (cultural, social, & physical) need to change to ensure everybody has equitable access and feels included. We should not expect a young individual to change their disability in order to 'fit' into our community, 

​

I enjoy collaborating with education teams to develop environmental and routine structures which ensure schooling is inclusive for all individuals. With a Masters Degree in Inclusive Education, I am an informed advocate for the inclusion rights and supportive strategies for students with diverse learning needs.

 

I enjoy working towards all types of functional goals, however my special interest areas include:

• Toileting skill development

• Social Skill development

• Occupational Performance Coaching

• Inclusive Schooling
