Meet Zippy
Hi, I’m Zippy, an OT who is passionate about supporting neurodivergent children, teens, adults, and families!
In my work, I focus on understanding what’s getting in the way of everyday life and what might actually make things easier across home, work/school, and community settings.
I like to keep things practical and collaborative. Rather than jumping straight into strategies, I spend time getting a clear picture of what’s going on, then we work together to figure out supports that actually fit into real life
-
I support Autistic and ADHD individuals across areas like:
sensory processing and regulation
stress, burnout, and emotional regulation
executive functioning and daily routines
work/school participation and advocacy
social understanding and connection
identity and self-understanding
transitions and change
Alongside in-person work, I also offer Telehealth sessions for older teens and adults on Thursdays & Fridays who want support with things like burnout, study or work demands, daily routines, or better understanding their own needs. This is best for clients aged 15-65 years of age.

Outside of work, I’m into sci-fi and fantasy books and TV shows, abstract watercolour painting, listening to audiobooks, playing Nintendo Switch, spending time with friends, and my bird Harry and Boo.
Before becoming an OT, I worked in early childhood education, which still really shapes how I think about kids, families, and development. I’m also a trained Circle of Security Parenting (COSP) facilitator as well as a Social Stencil facilitator.
