Summary

I am a dedicated and compassionate professional with a strong client-centred approach, placing high value on empathic listening and building meaningful therapeutic relationships. I have experience in structuring therapy sessions effectively and bring a sound understanding of child development and autism spectrum disorder to my practice. I am confident in managing documentation and caseload responsibilities, and I approach complex cases with emotional resilience and a strong commitment to advocacy. I am known for being approachable and collaborative, communicating clearly within multidisciplinary teams and producing well-organised, reflective reports. I am motivated to continue developing my practice and to support positive, meaningful outcomes for the individuals and families I work with.
