Outside the Therapy Room

I love spending time with my young family. Trips to the park, beach and playground are not uncommon, as we enjoy getting out and being active. One of my greatest pleasures in life is finding new restaurants and indulging in long dinners with my husband. I also love travelling and have taken the plunge of overseas travel with a toddler this past year. There is something truly transformative about getting outside of your comfort zone in a new place. 

I love to be creative! That usually takes the form of dancing, baking, painting or just colouring. Losing myself in the creative process is such an important experience for me.
