Supervised Senior Therapist

Hi, I’m Sindy! I’m a Senior Therapist who loves finding creative and practical ways to help clients build skills that make a real difference in their everyday lives. I have experience working across OAP programs, private practice, school boards, group homes, day programs, and independent living settings, which has taught me that every client and family is wonderfully different. I enjoy creating individualized programs, problem-solving when something isn’t quite working, and adjusting strategies so they truly fit the person — not the other way around. I also love coaching therapists, caregivers, and families and helping them feel more confident along the way.

Big fan of matcha drinks!
