Nicole is an Occupational Therapist who has worked across acute inpatient settings in New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and Australia. 

Before pursuing OT, Nicole spent years working as a support worker in the disability field. This built a strong foundation that continues to enrich her practice as an OT and continues her passion of working alongside individuals to break down barriers and support them to achieve their goals. 

She is driven by the face-to-face nature of OT, enjoying the rapport and connections she builds with clients and their loved ones, and seeing how support makes a real difference in their everyday lives. 

Her clinical experience is centred on supporting clients to safely discharge home from hospital, ensuring adequate supports are in place, providing assistive technology and liaising with disciplines within the MDT, including physiotherapy. 

Nicole’s OT Qualifications:

• Bachelor of Occupational Therapy (Otago Polytechnic)
• FIM accredited
• AHPRA registered Occupational Therapist
