Hi there! My name is Christine Newbigging and I am a Registered Occupational Therapist. I hold a Master’s Degree in Occupational Therapy and an undergraduate degree in Social Psychology from McMaster University. I have been practicing as an OT for 5 years with extensive experience and training in traumatic brain injury rehabilitation, concussion management and trauma-informed care. As an OT, I focus on promoting day to day function using a holistic approach to care. I consider the interplay between physical, cognitive and psychological symptoms of injury and develop individualized treatment plans to help clients reach personal goals.
Specialties:
- Adult & Adolescent Mental Health Assessment/Treatment
- Concussion Management/Rehabilitation
- Trauma-Informed Care including Exposure Therapy
- Return to Work Preparation and Coordination
- Mental Health Support for Caregivers
Description of Services:
As an OT, I specialize in the development of individualized treatment programs that support clients with reaching their functional goals in the areas of self-care, productivity and leisure. A detailed assessment on the physical, cognitive, affective and environmental factors associated with an injury or illness allows me to support my clients with developing targeted goals and tailored evidence-based intervention plans. Your unique goals drive the assessment and treatment process to ensure a client-centred approach to care.
