With over four years of dedicated case management experience in clinical injury management and rehabilitation, I bring a strong foundation in both acute and chronic injury care, with particular expertise in chronic pain management. I have developed specialized skills in managing complex injuries and have supported injured workers from initial assessment through to successful return to meaningful employment within multidisciplinary teams.
My approach is holistic, integrating physical, psychological, social, and emotional aspects of recovery. I am proficient in conducting a wide range of assessments—physical, psychosocial, and workplace—and use these to develop tailored rehabilitation plans aligned with the goals of all stakeholders. My passion lies in workplace rehabilitation, with a focus on evidence-based, client-centred, and outcome-driven return-to-work strategies. I am experienced in addressing and overcoming barriers to recovery through strong stakeholder collaboration and effective milestone tracking.
My case management capabilities span the full spectrum, including biopsychosocial screening, rehabilitation planning, SMART goal setting, exercise programming, community linkage, case conferencing, and comprehensive reporting. Additionally, I have experience in workplace training, facilitation, and conflict resolution, allowing me to effectively identify and address issues, implement solutions, and drive successful outcomes.
I have worked extensively with first responders and individuals from specialized services such as WA Police, Fire and Emergency Services, St John Ambulance, Australian Defence Force, Department of Justice, and the Department of Veterans Affairs. I have a deep understanding of the unique challenges these roles present and the factors influencing recovery and reintegration.
My clinical expertise extends to managing clients with complex medical and psychosocial conditions, including chronic pain syndromes, CRPS, psychosomatic pain, spinal/head injuries, and amputation. I am adept at navigating mental health and cultural complexities, using empathetic communication and timely referrals to support recovery and promote wellbeing.
