Lauren is an Occupational Therapist with a strong commitment to supporting young children and their families to achieve meaningful developmental outcomes and build confidence in everyday occupations. She holds a clear appreciation for the critical role of early intervention and is dedicated to enabling children to develop the foundational skills required to participate successfully at home, within educational environments, and in the broader community.

Lauren practices from a child-centred, strengths-based framework, carefully integrating each child’s interests, abilities, and goals to deliver therapy that is both purposeful and engaging. She works in close partnership with families and multidisciplinary teams, recognising that consistent collaboration and clear communication between stakeholders are essential to achieving sustainable functional outcomes. Central to her approach is the development of strong therapeutic relationships, creating a safe and supportive environment in which children can explore, learn, and extend their skills with confidence.

Lauren also has an emerging interest in working with adolescents, particularly during periods of increased social, emotional, and functional complexity. 

She aims to empower adolescents to take an active role in their therapy goals by providing them with the tools that will support their independence, participation in meaningful roles, and self-advocacy.
