Hi, I’m Katy, a children’s occupational therapist living locally in Wilmslow. I support children and young people of all ages who find everyday life hard because of sensory differences, whether that’s getting to school, managing big feelings, mealtimes, or tasks like dressing, handwriting and PE.
I’m an Advanced Sensory Integration Practitioner and HCPC registered, with experience in both specialist and mainstream schools. I’m also trained in the SOS Approach to Feeding and the EBSA Horizons approach for emotionally based school avoidance, and I have a particular interest in supporting high school students.
I offer: • Sensory assessments, including the SOSI-M and Sensory Profile 2, with a written report and practical strategies • Ayres Sensory Integration® informed therapy, led by your child and adapted to their age and the kind of play they enjoy • Home and school environmental assessments • Support for school avoidance, including graded return-to-school plans • Understanding Your Senses, my 8-week programme for young people • Feeding therapy for picky eaters
My approach is warm, practical and neurodiversity-affirming. I’ll listen to your journey so far, understand your worries and your child’s strengths, and then we’ll build a plan together. No diagnosis is needed.
As a mum of two teenagers and a tween, I know how much these difficulties can affect the whole family. I believe therapy should be accessible, so I keep my fees affordable and offer reduced rates for families who need them.
I cover Wilmslow, Stockport, Cheshire East and South Manchester. Get in touch for a free, no-obligation chat.
