I hold a Master’s in Occupational Therapy from London, with NBCOT certification ensuring high-quality care. I’ve taken specialized courses in Healthy Transitions, Telehealth, Mindfulness, and Neurodiversity, giving me the tools to meet a wide range of needs. My experience includes working at a unique hotel and restaurant in Tuscany run by adults with Down syndrome, and I also have a Culinary School diploma from Italy, which helps me integrate practical life skills into therapy in meaningful ways.

At Life on Purpose OT, we believe in creating YOUR BEST ADULT LIFE not just getting by. Here’s how we help:

Become more independent

Imagine the thrill of making your own dinner or planning a weekend outing without needing help. It’s not just about doing things on your own—it’s about the freedom that comes with learning new skills. We’re here to help you master those skills in a way that fits your life.

Boost your confidence

True confidence is built step by step. By setting and achieving small, manageable goals. You’ll start to see just how capable you really are. Our therapy is designed to help you practice these skills, so each success boosts your confidence and prepares you for the next challenge.

Build meaningful connections

We know that social situations can sometimes feel tricky, but we’re here to help you navigate them with confidence. Through fun and supportive role play, we’ll practice real-life scenarios like starting conversations and planning hangouts. Our goal is to help you take these skills into the real world, so you can connect with others and find your place in the community.
