I am a Specialist Occupational Therapist with experience across NHS and private practice, supporting children and young people with a range of complex needs, including those accessing Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS). My practice is grounded in neuroaffirming, trauma-informed and relationship-based approaches, recognising the individual strengths, needs and experiences of each young person.
My work includes supporting children and young people with sensory processing differences, emotional regulation difficulties and experiences of trauma. I work collaboratively with young people, families and professionals to understand barriers to participation, promote a sense of safety and belonging, and develop meaningful, individualised strategies that support engagement and wellbeing.
Alongside providing direct 1:1 occupational therapy assessment and intervention, I work with schools and wider organisations to develop their understanding of neurodivergence, sensory processing and trauma-informed practice. My aim is to build the knowledge, confidence and capacity of the adults and systems around children, creating environments that better meet their needs and improve outcomes for children and young people. I have bespoke training packages for services to support children, breaking down barriers and promoting inclusivity.
