I'm an Occupational Therapist (OT) working with families affected by Autism. I reduce stress and anxiety throughout families. I advise on how to optimise environments, and educate around differentiating between sensory issues and behaviour. I have an adult brother on the spectrum; this personal experience fuels my passion for my work. I work with families with or without a formal diagnosis. If no diagnosis is in place, the parents/carers and/or professionals will have identified autistic characteristics. For me a diagnosis is a label and reference point, but not necessary for me to do my job and make a difference. I specialise in supporting families and schools to better understand and work with each unique presentation of autistic characteristics. Health Professions Council Registered.
