My Services
I specialise in supporting school-aged neurodivergent children and the adults around them — parents and educators — to build understanding, confidence, and meaningful participation in everyday life. Support is available through ongoing therapeutic support or one-off consultations, delivered in homes, schools, the community, and online, primarily across Perth’s inner eastern suburbs and western corridor.
I have particular experience working with children with autism, ADHD, PDA profiles, anxiety, and other developmental differences, while welcoming children with a wide range of strengths, needs, and experiences.
Parent workshops (live and on demand)
Practical, supportive workshops designed to help parents better understand and support their neurodivergent children at home and beyond. Access live sessions or watch on demand, at a time that works for you.

1:1 Occupational Therapy Sessions (face to face)
I offer individual occupational therapy sessions in homes, schools, and community settings. These sessions are personalised to support each child’s unique strengths and needs, with a focus on meaningful goals. I work closely with parents and educators to foster inclusion, build skills, and support children to thrive in their everyday environments.
Telehealth
Accessible occupational therapy support from the comfort of your home or school, available in Western Australia, across Australia, and internationally. I am registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Agency in Australia and a member of Occupational Therapy Australia.
Research collaboration
Through my role as Adjunct Lecturer at Curtin University, I welcome opportunities to collaborate on research projects. I have a strong interest in supporting the social inclusion of neurodivergent populations and the development of evidence-based support programs. I also welcome interest from researchers who would like to adapt, expand or further evaluate the social inclusion program I developed as part of my PhD. If your research aligns with these themes, I’d be glad to connect and explore ways we can work together.
The process for 1:1 Occupational Therapy
Get in touch
Reach out by phone, email or through my website contact form. You don’t need a referral to access private OT services - parents, caregivers, educators or other health professionals can all make initial enquiries.
2. Initial Phone Call (Optional)
I offer a free 10-15 minute phone call to discuss you child’s needs, answer any questions and help determine if OT might be the right fit.
3. Intake and Consent
If you’d like to proceed, I’ll send you a welcome pack with an intake form and consent paperwork. This helps me learn more about your child’s strengths, challenges and goals
4. Initial Appointment
The first session usually includes:
A discussion with you and your child about goals and concerns
Play based observation or assessment with your child
Time to begin forming a connection with your child in a comfortable environment
This session could occur in your home, school or community setting depending on what suits your family best.
5. Individual Therapy Plan
Following the initial appointment, I’ll work with you to create a tailored support plan that fits your child’s needs and your priorities. This may include:
Regular therapy sessions
Strategies to use at home or school
Collaborate to support with educators or other professionals
6. Ongoing support
Therapy sessions may be short-term or ongoing, depending on your goals. Progress is regularly reviewed and I stay in close communication with you to make sure the support continues to meet your child’s needs.
Funding Options
Private OT services can be accessed through
Self funding
NDIS (self managed or plan-managed participants)

If your unsure of what you might be eligible for, I’m happy to help you navigate options
