I'm Jacki Mayne-Davis, an Occupational Therapist local to Tāmaki Makaurau | Auckland. My scope is skill development and accessibility: young or old, if you or someone you care for needs specialised support to thrive, you and I will work together to create a plan and a program that achieves your goals.

This could look like sensory assessments (what activities does your child avoid doing on a day-to-day basis? Let's keep sensory practical!), navigating big emotions and behavioural supports (hint: adult emotional regulation is just as important as the child's in this space), teaching new skills (think: toileting, dressing, car safety, mealtimes) and unlocking their engagement with the world around them (through switch-adapted technology, tweaking the curriculum, coaching the teaching or care teams).
