Since qualifying as an occupational therapist in 1999 I have worked extensively within the NHS. This has included physical and mental health, learning disabilities services and neurodevelopmental services.
I have a special interest in autism, learning disabilities and sensory approaches and interventions, having completed my Post Graduate certificate in Sensory Integration Therapy and International Certificate in ASI.
I have experience working with individuals across the life span and across physical, mental health, learning disabilities and neurodiverse populations. I have a strong belief in maximising potential.
