Claudia is a registered occupational therapist in Hong Kong and is also registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) in the UK. She has experience working with children across a range of clinical and community settings, including hospitals, mainstream and special schools, local NGOs, and private practice. She has also contributed as an occupational therapist to a Hong Kong-based research project focused on school-based support for students with ADHD in mainstream schools.

 

Claudia has worked with children aged 2–18 with a range of developmental and functional needs, including global developmental delay, Autism, ADHD, sensory processing difficulties, difficulties with motor coordination and executive functioning, as well as challenges with regulation and fine motor skills. Claudia is fluent in Cantonese, Mandarin and English, facilitating effective communication and collaborative work with children and their families.

 

Claudia believes that connection comes before intervention. She takes a child- and family-centred, relationship-based approach, recognizing that children learn, explore and participate best when they feel safe, understood and connected. She places a strong emphasis on co-regulation and supporting each child’s sensory, emotional and developmental needs, while building on their strengths and interests to promote meaningful participation. One of Claudia’s strongest beliefs is “reaching for heart as well as hands” — Ora Ruggles.

 

Claudia 為香港註冊職業治療師,並於英國(HCPC)註冊。她具備於不同臨床及社區服務環境中與兒童工作的經驗,包括醫院、主流學校、特殊學校、本地非政府機構及私人執業。她亦曾以職業治療師身份參與一項香港的研究項目,專注於在主流學校為 ADHD 學童提供支援。

 

Claudia 曾為 2 至 18 歲、具有不同發展及功能需要的兒童提供職業治療服務,包括整體發展遲緩、自閉症、ADHD、感覺處理困難,以及動作協調、執行功能、情緒調節及精細動作等方面的困難。她能流利運用廣東話、普通話及英語溝通,並重視與兒童及其家庭建立良好的溝通與合作關係。

 

Claudia 相信,連結是介入的起點。她採取以兒童及家庭為中心、並以關係為本的治療方式,相信當孩子感到安全、被理解及與他人建立連結時,便更能安心地探索、學習及參與。她重視共同調節(co-regulation),並會從每位兒童獨特的感覺、情緒及發展需要出發,同時發掘孩子的優勢與興趣,陪伴他們逐步建立調節能力,並更有信心地參與有意義的活動。Claudia 一直深信,職業治療不只是運用雙手,更需要觸及孩子的內心——「Reaching for heart as well as hands。」——Ora Ruggles
