“I’m here to support early‑ to mid‑career paediatric OTs who want practical skills, compassionate supervision for clients with sensory and neurodiverse presentations. I know how challenging this work can be, and I’m committed to working alongside you—sharing tools, strategies and encouragement to build your confidence.

I stay curious and keep learning—attending conferences on adventure therapy, embodiment psychology and trauma, and completing yoga teacher training. I bring that same focus on growth and self‑care to mentoring, so you’ll get practical clinical guidance wrapped in support for your wellbeing and professional development.”

I love working with other OTs and students to help build personal confidence, professional capabilities, and love for the profession. I try to use a gentle and supportive approach to mentoring, ensuring that mentees have the time and space to reach their goals through guided learning and collaborative problem solving. We are all learners in the OT world and I greatly value the ongoing connection through mentoring and the shared journey of being an OT!”
