Amy is an occupational therapist dedicated to helping people build meaningful lives that reflect their values, strengths, and goals. Passionate about neuro-affirming, person-centred support, she believes everyone deserves to be understood, respected, and empowered to be their authentic selves.

Drawing on professional expertise and lived experience of neurodivergence and chronic illness, Amy knows what it means to feel heard and believed. This shapes her compassionate approach to health, disability, and everyday life.

Amy has a special interest in women's and girls' health and wellbeing, while supporting people from all communities. She gets to know each participant holistically, believing this is where meaningful therapy begins. Beyond goals, she loves helping people discover purpose, belonging, and joy.

Outside work, Amy enjoys time with loved ones, the outdoors, animals, creative arts, and unwinding with films and games.

Amy strongly values the role of play in daily life and is rarely found without a deck of cards or bananagrams in their pockets, and loves any opportunity for a board game, or to find ways to integrate meaningful play into therapy sessions. In her ever-divided interests and attention, Amy also loves baking, testing out new recipes, and starting multiple crochet projects at a time, that may or may not get finished.

As an openly neurodivergent OT, Amy is incredibly passionate about neuroaffirming and trauma informed practice and always aims to create a space where clients can feel seen, understood and safe to be authentically themselves.  Amy truly believes in the power of doing and loves finding ways to incorporate individual passions into therapy goals, and make personal challenges feel safe and engaging!
