Changing the world one child at a time
My name is Mariza, and I am a children’s occupational therapist. I help kids from all backgrounds and with a range of needs and intellectual abilities overcome the barriers they face in carrying out everyday tasks they want to do or need to do.
I have a specialist interest in working with children who are gifted or have high learning potential but face some challenges because they also have a learning difference such as sensory processing differences, Autism, Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), to name but a few. We call kids with this profile twice exceptional (2e), or dual or multiple exceptional (DME), depending on where in the world you find yourself.
Please familiarise yourself with the services I offer, and get in touch to arrange a FREE 10 minute consultation to determine if we are a good match.
Completing an assessment is the first step in the process to helping your child. This will allow me to identify the underlying causes for the difficulties your child is having.
I provide therapy that is personalised, driven by evidence-based intervention approaches, and delivered in a fun and engaging manner.
Through convenient telehealth sessions, I offer advice and guidance to support parents and carers of 2e/DME children on their journey.
Enhance your paediatric practice with clinical supervision including support in working with 2e/DME children, and get mentoring support to develop your business idea in your field of practice.
Expand your knowledge in helping children with 2e/DME and other unique learning profiles, by attending one of my courses and/or accessing my online resources.
