How I work

Day to day, I’m a practical, goal-focused occupational therapist. I like to collaborate—whether that’s with a family, support network, or a broader multidisciplinary team—to make sure we’re all working toward the same outcomes. I’m straightforward in how I communicate and clear when explaining options, challenges, and what’s realistically achievable.

It’s a privilege to support people and their families in navigating everyday challenges—whether that’s building independence, adapting to change, or finding new ways to do the things that matter most. I feel incredibly lucky to be part of a profession that focuses on helping people live meaningful, functional lives.

Occupational therapy is broad and ever-evolving, and that’s something I really value. I’ve learnt a lot throughout my career, but I’m always open to learning more. If I don’t know the answer, I’ll be honest about it—and then I’ll go and find it.
