How I work

Get to know Emma S

How can you support people?

Emma is a great active listener and will listen to your story and work with you to identify what you want to be able to do. She will encourage you to engage in activities you enjoy and motivate you in order to achieve your goals so that you can live your best life.

How does your background shape the way you work?

Emma has been lucky enough to work in a variety of settings with adults and children in VIctoria, Tasmania, Queensland, and in the USA. All these experiences have shaped her into the OT that she is today. She has a gentle approach and listens to what the client wants to use that as a guide to assist them to acheive their goals.

What is your approach to working with people?

Emma develops rapport so that the client feels comfortable to tell their story and identify their goals. Often clients need to experience to the possibilities of what they can do in OT before they can be definitive about their goals. Emma gives people opportunities to experience different options of therapeutic activities based on their interests and what motivates them.
