OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST

I’m Rachel, a paediatric Occupational Therapist. I graduated in 2014 from the University of Cape Town and very quickly found my passion in working with children who experience the world differently, and with the parents who love them fiercely and are doing their very best in systems that often don’t meet their needs.

My clinical expertise has been shaped by extensive experience working within specialist educational settings, hospital and community settings and private practice, leading to confidence and skill in working with children with an array of developmental differences, from Cerebral Palsy and Down Syndrome, to Autism, ADHD and Dyspraxia. I work with children of all ages, with specific expertise in neurodivergent children and children with physical disabilities.

I believe progress happens through safety, trust, and attunement, not compliance or pressure. When children feel understood and supported, they naturally move toward growth.

RACHEL IS BASED IN OUR LONDON CLINIC ON WEDNESDAY MORNINGS.
