Our associates bring their own unique energy and skill set to their interaction with children and support of families. Our associates have varied clinical backgrounds. Some have over 15 years of practice with experience working in hospital, community, school and international settings. Prior to becoming occupational therapists, some of our associates have worked as ABA/IBI therapists, shadows and tutors.

Unique to our practice is the depth of understanding of the use of a sensory integration frame of reference and its application to assessment and intervention and the analysis of challenges. Many of the associates also have a special interest in working with children and adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). These associates have a wide range of experience working with this population including clinical services at Giant Steps Toronto (school for children with ASD), consultation to The Geneva Centre for Autism and consultation to day cares and preschool settings and public and separate school boards.
