Experience

My Professional Journey

I am a dedicated mental health and wellbeing practitioner. With extensive experience as an educational therapist, I have worked across schools and specialist settings supporting children and young people with autism, developmental differences, and emotional challenges, for more than 10 years. My work has focused on helping individuals build essential life skills, improve communication, and develop confidence through evidence-based approaches such as behavior intervention planning, discrete trial training, and naturalistic teaching strategies. Over the years, I have also collaborated closely with families, educators, and multidisciplinary teams to ensure consistent, holistic support. This combination of academic study and hands-on professional practice underpins my passion for creating safe, nurturing spaces where every child and young person can thrive.
