I am a highly experienced occupational therapist based in South West Scotland. I offer a personalised service to help adult clients and their families who may be experiencing difficulties arising from illness, accident or simply the challenges of growing older. I have over 30 years experience both in the NHS and the private sector. Working in a wide range of settings and in a variety of clinical specialities has given me a broad range of knowledge and experience to draw on for each individual I work with. Some of the things I can help with include: - Recommending equipment or minor adaptations to make everyday tasks easier. - Personalised rehabilitation programmes to help regain or improve independence and confidence. - "Future proofing" your home to make it easier to manage in later years. - Finding ways to keep doing the things you value in your daily life, from basic tasks like getting dressed and preparing a meal to things you enjoy such as your hobbies, interests or holidays. - Learning to cope with the effects of a long term illness, for example managing fatigue. - Hand therapy programmes to fit your needs. - I offer telephone or video consultation if this better suits your needs. Our daily routines and activities are very important for our health and well-being. Feeling in control of our own life and able to manage as much as possible of what we need or choose to do helps us all get the most from every day and can improve quality of life. This is what I aim to help each person I work with to achieve. I will be happy to discuss your needs initially on the phone or via email or messaging in a free informal consultation.
