About Monica
A Little More About Monica
I am a qualified Occupational Therapist with extensive experience working with children across a wide range of neurodevelopmental differences, including autism, developmental delays, sensory processing differences, and ADHD.
I completed my Bachelor of Science in Occupational Therapy at the University of Santo Tomas in Manila, Philippines, and began my clinical practice in 2009. I commenced practising in Australia in 2023, bringing with me a wealth of experience and a genuine passion for supporting children to thrive in their everyday environments.
I believe that every child has unique strengths, and my role is to build on those strengths in ways that are meaningful, practical, and empowering for the whole family.
