Amee, Occupational Therapist (OT)
Amee is an experienced and highly versatile Occupational Therapist with nearly nine years in the private primary and rehabilitation sectors. Her practice is built on a holistic, function- first philosophy, ensuring clients of all ages receive integrated and supportive care tailored to their unique needs.

Amee’s dedication to lifelong function and well-being is reflected in her four core areas of specialisation:

1. Paediatric Development & Neuro-Regulation

Amee is passionate about supporting children with ADHD, focusing on essential skills like emotional regulation and smooth transitions between activities. She works closely with parents, providing practical, in-home tools to reinforce therapeutic gains.

A core component of her paediatric work is the integration of primitive reflexes and enhancing interoception. By addressing these fundamental building blocks of movement and body awareness, Amee helps children meet developmental milestones and achieve readiness for school and life.

2. Chronic Swelling and Lymphoedema Management

With six years dedicated to the lymphoedema space, Amee possesses extensive knowledge in comprehensive swelling management. She adopts a whole-body perspective that treats the individual, not just the symptom. Her tailored treatment plans incorporate:

• Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)
• Expert Compression Therapy
• Therapeutic breathing and targeted movement strategies

3. NDIS Functional Capacity Assessments (FCA)

Drawing on her broad experience across neurological, medical, and orthopaedic disorders, Amee provides thorough NDIS Functional Capacity Evaluations. Her expertise includes work in aged care placement, minor home modifications, and assistive devices (including basic seating principles).

Amee’s assessments focus on maximising mobility (both in and outside the home), determining necessary equipment, collaborating effectively with multi-disciplinary care teams, and addressing the impact of care burden.

4. Infant Massage & Parent Connection

Amee is a skilled Infant Massage Instructor, dedicated to enhancing the powerful bond between parent/guardian and baby. She facilitates a structured 5-week course (1 hour per week), teaching valuable communication and massage techniques for infant health and connection. An additional 30 minutes is included each week to foster a supportive peer-group environment for new mothers/parents navigating the same life stage.
