Carla Lauren - Founder

Highly Specialist Occupational Therapist and Certified Sensory Integration Practitioner

About me I live by the sea and love exploring rock pools and paddling around in my kayak. When I’m not by the sea you can find me in my hammock in the trees! I have worked in the health, social and education services for over 15 years and I have a passion for making therapy accessible to those who need it most. 

If I was a tree I’d be a birch tree as they are a pioneer species, bringing new beginnings with their silver bark shining bright in the dark forest.
