Kathleen Patton

Kathleen works with children with a variety of diagnosis (e.g. Autism, Developmental Coordination Disorder, Cerebral Palsy, etc.) aged 4–12 in home and school environments to help families learn skills to assist their children develop fine motor skills, executive function skills, play skills, and self-help skills (feeding, dressing, etc.).

I had never heard of Occupational Therapy until my honours supervisor introduced it to me. If it wasn’t for her and my education at UVic, I wouldn’t have discovered the amazing profession I am in.

Subsequent education: Occupational Therapy - MA (U of T)
