I have five plus years working with children with a range of disabilities. I have a thorough understanding of NDIS including writing end of summary reports, functional capacity assessments and goal setting to meet the children’s needs. I have had the pleasure of receiving mentoring from experienced Occupational Therapists in my area of interest which has supported me to develop my clinical skills. I enjoy working to meet the goals of clients in the location best suited to meeting a child’s goals either in the community, home, school, or clinic environment. I believe that consultation with family, friends, support workers, teachers and others who can support the child to achieve their goal is best practice to ensure generalisation in all relevant environments. 

I have worked as a paediatric Occupational Therapist for 33 years in a wide variety of roles in England, South Africa and Australia. I have provided both individual and group therapy and worked with a variety of diagnosis. I trained in Sensory Integration while working in England and have specialist knowledge and experience of Sensory processing and Emotional Regulation. I have worked for the Department of Education Queensland as a consultative therapist in schools and specialised in Autism when I worked for AAWA for 8 years. I have experience working under NDIS and providing reports and assessments such as Functional Capacity Assessments, to advocate for funding.
