She conducts comprehensive neurodevelopmental, cognitive, and functional assessments that incorporate input from parents, educators, and health professionals to inform holistic, meaningful recommendations.
Her therapeutic approach is child-centred and family inclusive, drawing on evidence-based modalities that meet the individual's evolving needs. As a mum of three, she brings warmth, understanding, and a grounded perspective to her clinical work.
