After completing a Bachelor of Psychological Science, Vanessa began her journey working in the disability sector as an Education Support. Vanessa quickly became inspired by the impact Occupational Therapy can have on children and their families so she decided to continue her education by completing a Master of Occupational Therapy at Swinburne University in 2016.
As a new graduate, Vanessa started her Occupational Therapy career in Occupational Rehabilitation whereby she completed ADL home & ergonomic assessments and return to work planning, later transitioning into community based Occupational Therapy where she developed her home modification and equipment prescription skills. Drawing back to her experience as an Education Support, Vanessa decided to specialise her skills and focus on paediatric therapy, in particular, children with a diagnosis/diagnoses of ASD, ADHD and other neurological disorders. In her years of experience Vanessa has worked in both clinic and community based settings as part of a multidisciplinary team, which encompassed group programs, delivering remote and telehealth based therapy.
In 2021 Vanessa established On Track Healthcare and with this exciting new venture she brings passion, dedication and years of experience to each of the families she works with.
In her spare time, Vanessa fills her cup by visiting the beach, cooking and entertaining her friends and family. One of her passions is renovating houses and she hopes to one day be on The Block.
Welcome to On Track Healthcare, we look forward to supporting you and your family.
