MEET THE CLINICIAN

Hi, I’m Lauren!

I'm Lauren Bezuidenhout, a paediatric Occupational Therapist with a passion for supporting children and young people to feel confident, capable and comfortable in their everyday lives.

I love getting to know each child, celebrating their victories (big and small!) and working alongside families to create practical, individualised and lasting supports that make a real difference.

When I'm not wearing my OT hat, you'll usually find me baking something delicious, getting competitive over a board game, gardening or spending quality time with my favourite people. I'm also always on the hunt for the best cup of coffee!

Lauren holds a Bachelor of Occupational Therapy (Honours) and maintains current registration with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA).
