Senior Occupational Therapist
State: VIC
Welcome! I'm Kim and I am excited to join the Very Helpful Chats team as a Senior Occupational Therapist.
I am here to let you know that it's okay to be weird, quirky and unique. So while we work on creating new skills and strategies for you in planning, organising, managing sensory sensitivities and managing big feelings, I want you to know that you are amazing exactly as you are right now - and not having skills in these areas does not mean there is something wrong with who you are as a person!

Arts and Crafts
I love crafting and my hobbies tend go towards shiny, sparkly and reasonably quick!
3D Printing
At the moment I am hyperfocused on 3d printing…. I have made tonnes of articulated animals as fidgets.
Making sensory toys!
I make things to suit my sensory needs at the time e.g sewing weighted items/ worry pets, chainmail fidgets, crochet with soft wool.
Things that make me 'me'

Kim works with us on Monday, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursday.
Kim's therapy wait list is estimated to be around 6-7 months for OT and 8-10 months for a FCA. This is only a rough estimate, as our waitlists can be quite fluid, and sometimes there is movement, which means we might have unexpected appointments that pop up earlier than this.
