Factoids about Jamine:
Delia is our resident physiotherapist and one of the clinic directors at More Than Able Therapy.
Some words that could be used to describe her include; passionate, determined, thoughtful, and just a little bit cheeky. She started her life in the USA, and through several happy accidents has found herself putting roots down on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland.
Delia completed her undergraduate studies in Florida and gained her postgraduate physiotherapy qualification at Bond University early in 2015.
Delia was lucky enough to grow up with a sister who had Cerebral Palsy, and from a young age, she knew that she was meant to be a physiotherapist supporting children like Amber.
She loves living by the beach, reading sci-fi fantasy literature (nerd), lifting heavy weights, and buying too many plants. Delia is a deep thinker who has a shocking amount of knowledge about a huge array of things.
Thankfully, one of those things is physiotherapy!
Factoids about Delia
Where are we starting from?
The first appointment is about getting to know you and your child and finding out what matters to your family. Our therapists assess your child’s current abilities and develop an understanding of their strengths and difficulties.
Where are we going?
We are committed to collaborating with our clients, and their parents about what matters to them. Let’s dream up a future where they’re a ballet dancer, an independent adult, or an astronaut. As a team (yes, you’re on the team) we will break that down into small and achievable goals in the here and now that we can work towards in therapy.
How do we do this?
We know you’ve heard this before, but it’s important to know that therapy is a journey. Each team member has a role to play, and our therapists are in it with your family. Regular therapy sessions include a variety of dynamic and effective therapy approaches tailored to your child’s needs. This includes the creation of home programs and parent coaching.
How is it going?
Reflecting on what we are working on is an essential part of the process. We rely on parents collaborating with us, and honestly examining every aspect of the supports that are in place for their child in order for us to make changes as needed. We frequently check in on the progress of our specific and measurable therapy goals, and strive to create an opportunity to celebrate all the little milestones on the journey. We think of this step as the pit-stop, and we aren’t afraid to ask for directions if we’ve gotten a little waylaid.
Our therapists know how to engage your child in adventures and play with therapy baked right in.
We provide a variety of face-to-face therapy options to ensure that all of your child’s needs are met. This results in a happy uplifting therapy experience that leaves your child wanting to come back for more!
