👋🏼 Hi! Welcome to my page. I thought it was time I properly introduce myself.

My name is Kate. I'm an occupational therapist supporting young people and their families. I've been an OT for over 12 years in early intervention, community services and private practice.

I'm passionate about helping little ones to achieve their goals and empowering families to be the best support they can!

Parenting is tough! My hope is to use this platform to share useful and easy to understand information to support parents and colleagues.

I'm a mother of two little girls (who you'll see pop up on here!) and my experience as a parent has truly shaped me as a therapist.

Please to let me know of there's anything specific you'd like me to share 👇🏼

Who swiped left?? 🙋🏼‍♀️

The human brain’s natural curiosity is a fascinating aspect of our cognitive make up.

Curiosity emerges early in childhood and plays a crucial role in cognitive development. Children are naturally curious and constantly asking questions as they explore the world around them. This curiosity-driven exploration is essential for picking up knowledge and developing thinking skills.

Research suggests that curiosity is associated with various cognitive benefits, including improved learning, memory, and problem-solving skills. When we are curious about a topic, we are more motivated to engage with it, leading to deeper processing and better retention of information (Gottlieb, J. 2013).

So next time, instead of saying to you little one, “don’t open that box of toys!”, say, “you can play with your car track”. It’s harder than you think to reframe our instructions to our little ones, it takes lots of practice!

Parenting can be really hard 🤯. I have this cute picture by on my wall at the clinic as a fun reminder to breath and slow down. I do this much better at work than at home! Why is this? Well…

Managing your own emotions while parenting can be challenging for lots reasons. Firstly, the love and concern for our children can intensify our emotional responses to their behaviours and challenges. As therapists, we understand the importance of maintaining composure and providing a supportive environment, but when it’s our own children, our emotions can cloud our judgment. Along with the demands of parenting, combined with pressures to be the “perfect” parent, can create stress and overwhelm, making it difficult to regulate our own emotions effectively.

Recognising and acknowledging our emotions, seeking support when needed, and practicing self-care are so important for managing emotions while navigating the amazingly fun yet emotionally demanding journey of parenting.

The Invisible String by Patrice Karst is a great book to read to your little one especially if they are needing some support settling in to a new school, classroom or kindy. It’s a beautifully imaginative way to help little ones overcome fears around separation from loved ones. I picked this on up for $10 at

we did it! 💕

Some lovely family time at at the beach has come to an end 🥰. I’m very excited to share some updates from the new clinic! Putting together the final touches next week after sending my biggest girl off the Prep 👩🏼‍🏫

A read this great quote today! It’s exactly what I try and make happen in my therapy sessions. No one wins in a power struggle!
Especially this time of year, sessions need to be fun. We often play games and create craft. We can still focus on so many different goals with these activities. The best progress is made when everyone is enjoying themselves!

Sneak peek! The new clinic space is coming along nicely. Fresh paint and fresh floors are looking great. Approved by the two little helpers although they did give the feedback that there should be more pink, purple and unicorns 🦄💕💜

This is a brilliant book by to add to your bedtime reading rotation! This busy time of year can be overwhelming for children of all ages (and parents!). This book beautifully explains that problems shouldn’t be feared and are best shared!
