ABOUT US

Having qualified as an Occupational Therapist BSc (Hons) over twenty plus years ago, time has flown in a blink of an eye. Over this time, Ann has worked in a range of clinical setting from Children and Adolescent Mental Health (CAMHS) to an Early Intervention Projects for young people with emerging mental health needs, through to working within a community physical disability setting to assess and treat children and young people with a wide range of complex neurological conditions, neurodiversity/autism diagnosis, developmental coordination delay, and functional challenges with daily occupation and activities. Ann has completed a Postgraduate Certificate and more recently an Advanced SI Practitioner status-level 4 in Sensory Integration (SI), which has been successfully integrated, where appropriate, into her clinical practice when working with individuals experiencing sensory processing difficulties. Ann has a special interest in how our senses impact on participation in everyday life, especially when such practical engagements are influenced by traumatic experiences.

This rounded breadth of experience across our physical and mental wellbeing gives Ann a rich skill base to draw from when assessing and developing intervention programmes to support individuals to reach their full potential in a fun and friendly manner.
