What Inspires Me
What Inspires Me
Helping others discover their strengths and achieve their goals has always been my passion. From the moment I began my journey in occupational therapy, I knew my focus would be on children and families. Seeing the pride and joy on a child’s face when they master a new skill or overcome a challenge is what motivates me every day.
My Approach to Therapy
My Approach to Therapy
Every child is unique, and I believe in creating a tailored approach that aligns with their individual needs and aspirations. My sessions are designed to be fun, safe, and supportive, offering children the opportunity to thrive while learning essential skills for everyday life.
