What inspired you to pursue a career in occupational therapy?
Alex: I enjoy helping people to overcome challenges that they experience due to their disability. As OTs, I believe we can make positive changes in people’s lives, and that’s the reason I wanted to pursue a career as an Occupational Therapist.
Do you specialise in any particular area of occupational therapy?

What are the rewards of working with clients to achieve their goals?
Alex: It is very rewarding to assist clients in gaining independence in self-care and enhancing their quality of life.
I also find it rewarding to work with my clients to achieve their goals, watch people become more motivated with therapy, and help clients develop skills and strategies that support long-term independence and well-being.
