Megan  is another of our valued Occupational Therapists at Stepping Stones.  Megan completed a Bachelor of Science in Occupational Therapy at Curtin  University in 2014 and moved into Paediatrics in 2021 after having first  made her mark in the resources industry as a Health and Safety Advisor  in NSW, the Pilbara, and the fast-paced corporate world in Perth.

Megan  has a passion for working with children and understands the benefit of  movement and play in the regulation of sensory systems. She has  experience working with individuals with Intellectual Disability, Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, and Down  Syndrome. Megan also has a keen interest in mental wellbeing and  supporting the whole team and family around the child to maximise  functional outcomes and goal achievement.

Since  joining the Stepping Stones team Megan has undertaken extensive  upskilling in Pragmatic Organisation Dynamic Display (PODD), the Zones of Regulation, understanding sleep difficulties, the Key Worker model of service provision, sexuality and puberty in disability, and Attention Autism which has enabled her to gain an  understanding of evidence based interventions and strategies to promote  attention, social / communication skills, and independence around  activities of daily living.

Megan  is dedicated to a career in Paediatric Occupational Therapy and  continues to develop her expertise with ongoing training, supervision,  and professional development in order to become an expert in our field.

Outside of work you may see Megan playing tennis with her family, baking, or trail riding with her horses and dog.
