Mentoring & Clinical Supervision

Grow Your Confidence

Increase Your Clinical Impact

Working with neurodivergent children is rewarding and complex.

When regulation, behaviour, and engagement challenges impact participation, therapy can feel like navigating uncharted waters. It takes more than textbooks and training courses - it takes deep clinical insight, critical thinking, and a safe space to unpack challenges, celebrate wins, and explore evidence-based strategies that truly work.

That’s where my mentoring and clinical supervision comes in.

Why Work With Me?

I’m Michelle Newby PhD(c), MSc, BHSc(OT), a paediatric occupational therapist with over 25 years of experience supporting children with some of the most complex neurodevelopmental presentations - where regulation, behaviour, and engagement all intersect to impact participation in daily life.

I’ve worked in private practice, community, hospital and educational settings, and I love helping occupational therapists grow their skills in these areas so they can feel more competent, confident, and equipped to create better outcomes for children and families.

Through our sessions, you’ll get:

Evidence-informed guidance grounded in the latest research and neurodiversity-affirming practice.
Practical, real-world strategies you can apply immediately in your sessions.
A safe, reflective space to discuss complex cases without judgment.
Clarity and direction for your ongoing professional growth.
