I’m an Occupational Therapist who supports children and young adults with ASD, ADHD, and other disabilities to build the skills, confidence, and independence they need to thrive. I focus on making therapy fun, practical, and meaningful, so it translates into everyday life.

My approach combines strengths-based and evidence-based practice with structured therapeutic support tailored to each child’s individual needs, goals and capacity. I believe in balancing emotional safety, connection and regulation with skill development, healthy boundaries and building functional independence across everyday environments.

I use a mix of play-based therapy, sensory integration, task chaining, metacognitive strategies, and environmental supports. Sessions may focus on social skills, routines, planning, motor skills, emotional regulation, resilience, or coping strategies for big emotions. I also provide parent education, create practical resources, and complete FCAs and Assistive Technology assessments when needed.

I work collaboratively with families, educators and support teams to create realistic, supportive and achievable pathways for growth, while recognising and valuing each child’s unique strengths, interests and way of experiencing the world.
