15 years’ experience | Based in Dorset/Hampshire
I am a highly accomplished physiotherapist with fifteen-years’ experience of assessing and treating individuals with a variety of complex neurological conditions including acquired brain injury, spinal cord injury, functional neurological disorders, stroke, vestibular disorders and neuromuscular diseases. My professional practice has been included community, acute inpatient and outpatient settings, including within national centres of excellence for neurology and spinal cord injury. I have an excellent knowledge base and clinical reasoning skills. My commitment to continual learning is evident through postgraduate training in various areas, and I am adept in evidence-based rehabilitation techniques and approaches such as functional electrical stimulation and task-specific training.
I excel in building constructive relationships with professionals, clients and their support networks. My client management approach is person centred and adopts aspects of motivational interviewing and empowerment behavioural approaches. My interventions are goal-oriented and pragmatic, ensuring the achievement of each client’s interdisciplinary goals efficiently. I have a particular interest in the management of complex neurological presentations and supporting people to return to meaningful, value-based lives. My treatments utilise the best current evidence available and incorporate equipment and technological advances where necessary.
I am registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), The Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP), and The Association of Chartered Physiotherapists Interested in Neurology (ACPIN).
