We believe that the people guiding your therapy matter just as much as the therapy itself. Our team of driver trained occupational therapists brings a powerful mix of clinical expertise, lived experience and genuine care to every assessment and therapy session.
Every occupational therapist on our team holds advanced certification in driver assessment and rehabilitation. We are also uniquely placed as licensed driving instructors to provide tailored capacity building programs. We work closely with clients across Perth, offering in-home, clinic and vehicle-based sessions that adapt to each person’s unique needs and goals.

Driving has always represented much more to me than traveling from one place to another. It’s about community access, connection, and participation, the things that underpin health, well-being, and quality of life. That belief is what led me to start Drive On Therapy. I wanted to create a service that doesn’t just tick boxes, but truly supports people in navigating the complex, sometimes daunting world of driving.
Whether it’s helping someone explore vehicle modifications, guiding a client back to driving after a stroke, or supporting them through the anxiety of a driving assessment (including those difficult conversations when it’s time to stop driving), my goal has always been to bridge the gaps and demystify the process. Driving is independence, and everyone deserves clarity, compassion, and confidence in how they approach it.
I bring over 13 years of experience as an occupational therapist, including roles as a clinical manager where I helped develop organisations and services from the ground up. Along the way, I’ve learned that while technical expertise is essential, it’s the deep understanding and genuine connection with people that makes the biggest difference. My personable approach, listening, adapting, and meeting people where they are, is at the heart of everything I do.
Outside of work, life is equally full and rewarding. I’m a husband and dad to two energetic boys who keep me on my toes. They’ve taught me patience, resilience, and the art of laughing at chaos. When I’m not chasing them around, you’ll find me outdoors, whether it’s playing sports, exploring nature, or just soaking up the fresh air.
Drive On Therapy is the intersection of my professional journey and personal values: a place where expertise meets empathy, and where every client is supported not just as a driver, but as a person seeking independence, connection, and quality of life.

With over 12 years of experience as an occupational therapist, my passion for driving rehabilitation started early, back at university, when I was first introduced to adaptive driving aids for people with disabilities. Seeing the life-changing power of these tools inspired me to specialise in this field, where driving becomes a gateway to freedom and connection.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked across aged care and community-based OT roles, and more recently supported a team of driver trained OTs as a clinical lead. These roles have shaped my understanding of how occupational therapy can empower people across all life stages to live more independently and meaningfully.
Whether I’m helping someone gain their licence for the first time, with or without vehicle modifications, or supporting a return to driving after a medical condition, my focus is on building confidence and capacity. I also walk alongside clients and families through more sensitive transitions when driving is no longer recommended, ensuring those conversations are approached with compassion and respect.
What I love most about my work is the chance to truly connect with people. Whether it’s sharing stories with older clients or learning from the daily lives of younger ones, I’m constantly reminded how driving opens doors to community access, social connection, mental wellbeing, work and leisure. It’s about more than mobility, it’s about life.
I’m a wife, mother of two, and proud fur-baby mum as well. On weekends, you’ll find me park-hopping, bike-riding, or running away from waves at the beach. At home, I’m an avid binge-watcher of great TV series and a devoted fan of musical theatre — never missing a chance to catch my favourite shows live.
When it comes to driving and independence, trust is everything. That’s why all our therapists follow evidence-based frameworks and standards, including the Austroads Fitness to Drive Standards, WA Department of Transport licensing regulations, and NDIS Operational Guidelines. But more importantly, we bring honesty, empathy and a collaborative mindset to every client relationship.
We’re here to listen, to advocate, and to support, never to judge or rush. Our clients often tell us they feel seen, respected, and supported throughout their entire journey, and that’s exactly how we want it to be.
Each member of our team is highly trained in occupational therapy and driver rehabilitation, with extensive experience in working with people with disabilities and medical conditions.
