Patrice (Masters of Occupational Therapy)Currently, I am working with two siblings to help them self-regulate their emotions. Additionally, we focus on enhancing their communication skills, and as a result, they are being assisted in tying their shoe laces, fixing their hair, and using cutlery independently.

Jeffery (Doctor of Physiotherapy)At present, I work with an older adult each week at an aged care facility. In this setting, we collaborate on his exercise program, making steady progress together.

Rochelle (Masters of Speech Pathology)Currently, I work with a young girl to support her social skills. Additionally, with guidance from her speech pathologist, we focus on applying these skills in her social setting.
