Southern Peninsula Occupational Therapy
Helping children and families increase their participation and independence.
A holistic approach to therapy
As an occupational therapist, I take a holistic approach to intervention which might include working on specific skills, enhancing strengths or coping strategies, identifying and addressing emotional or behavioural challenges, or modifying the environment or activity to support participation.

Early childhood intervention
I incorporate siblings, pets, grandparents, child-care workers and kinder teachers whenever possible so that your child is having continuity across all environments and so that they have a network of people all supporting them using similar strategies.

Family centred

Strength based
Support for your child doesn’t only mean working on areas of weakness or deficit. In fact it’s often more productive and enriching to make the most of your areas of strength to support areas of challenge. Those might be your child’s strengths, or they might be your strengths as a parent. We all have strengths, and I will coach you through uncovering them.

Natural environment
Your child learns best in the environment that they live, learn and play. Whether it’s your home, childcare centre, kinder or out in the community, I will come to you, so that therapy can focus on increasing participation within your child’s real-world setting.

Parent coaching
Let's work together
I love early childhood intervention because it allows me to develop a relationship with the child’s entire family. At that young age, parents are the child’s most important teachers and through a parent coaching model I will be able to provide guidance on how to support your child’s development during your daily routines and activities.
