About

Emma is a passionate Occupational Therapist who has a range of fieldwork experiences which include working within a school, hospital and mental health setting. Using a holistic and occupation-focused approach, Emma enjoys supporting people to return to their valued roles and activities following injury or illness. 

Emma is committed to helping people to reach their occupational goals using a spectrum of enablement skills by advocating, collaborating, engaging and adapting, the list goes on! She also loves working with a diverse range of cultures. During all client contacts there is a real emphasis on respecting individual cultures and customs so that a strong client-centred approach is adopted.  

In her spare time, she enjoys keeping in contact with family, sewing and keeping fit by walking and jogging.
