Registered Physiotherapist Looking to Thrive in Building Strong Therapeutic Connections with Clients
| Hi! I am a registered PT in Ontario with about five years experience in a broad range of roles in the public healthcare system in three of Canada’s provinces. I have significant experience with the adult population and have branched into paediatrics at SickKids for the last year. One of my greatest strengths as a therapist is building strong interpersonal relationships with clients that allow us to make real gains in working together. Connection is the best part of my job, and I am often told that I have a natural way of building trusting and fun therapeutic relationships. The less fun part of my career thus far is the often limiting bureaucracy of both public health institutions and systems. It can be quite emotionally draining at times to watch our system fail patients when I only hold so much influence in a much bigger healthcare picture. I’m looking to add to my week a work setting focused more on the patient than the system, both for the health of your loved one and my own! Would be more than happy to share my resume, references from employers and I have a few patients I know would love to give a personal reference regarding their experiences in working with me. Looking forward to hearing from you!
