I am a Clinical Specialist Occupational Therapist working in a medium secure mental health service in South London. Originally from Valongo, Portugal, I moved to London in 2020 and continue my search for the most authentic Portuguese food in the UK. My passion lies in supporting individuals within secure services, where I focus on promoting recovery and enhancing quality of life. I am particularly interested in the role of Ayres Sensory Integration and its impact on mental health outcomes, and I am committed to advancing our understanding of how this approach can support clients in secure settings.
