Georgia came to occupational therapy through psychology and cognitive neuroscience, and her work has stayed close to that intersection ever since: how physical health, mental health and daily functioning shape one another. She has worked across public and private mental health settings — supporting children, adolescents and adults, often as the sole OT in regional teams — and now brings that experience to biio. Her approach is collaborative and strengths-based, focused on practical strategies rather than prescriptions for how a life should look.
Conditions like POTS, EDS and MCAS reshape daily life in ways that are easy to underestimate — showering, cooking, working and socialising all draw on a limited and unpredictable energy budget. Care that treats symptoms in isolation often misses this daily reality. Georgia works at the level of function: pacing, routines, environmental adjustments and energy management, tailored to how each body actually behaves. The aim is participation that holds up over time, without constant boom and bust.
For many neurodivergent people, sensory load and executive demands set the limits of a day long before motivation does. Standard approaches often ask the person to adapt to the environment rather than the reverse. Georgia uses neuro-affirming, sensory-informed assessment to understand how a nervous system takes in and responds to the world, then builds strategies around individual strengths — supporting participation without masking or burnout.
When the body is unwell or under prolonged stress, mood, motivation and daily function shift together, and it can be hard to tell what is driving what. Georgia treats many emotional struggles as nervous system responses rather than personal failures. Drawing on mental health OT experience across the lifespan and training in trauma-sensitive yoga, her trauma-sensitive, gender-affirming approach makes safety and regulation the starting point, not the afterthought.
Sessions with Georgia are collaborative and unhurried, shaped by capacity on the day. She is comfortable with complexity, confident working alongside the rest of a care team, and focused on strategies that fit real routines rather than ideal ones. Expect to be asked what matters to you before being told what to work on.
