About

Meet Stacey

I am an experienced occupational therapist providing high quality, evidence-based care for adults with serious injuries, including those with cognitive and physical impairments.

After completing my degree in Occupational Therapy at the University of South Australia in 2007, I worked across inpatient and community roles before finding my passion working with a highly experienced allied health team at Disability SA. There I provided assessments and therapy for adults living with cognitive, intellectual, and physical disabilities across residential and community settings, from those requiring high levels of formal care, through to people living largely independently with minimal support. This included prescribing complex assistive technology and recommending home modifications to help people live as safely and independently as possible.

After ten years at Disability SA, I joined the Lifetime Support Authority (LSA), a state-based serious injury scheme supporting people injured in motor vehicle accidents, including those with traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, and amputation. It was here that I refined my approach, learning that good rehabilitation starts with genuinely understanding what matters to each person, and building a plan around their values, goals, and life experience.

Hey Stacey Occupational Therapy was established in 2024 to bring that experience directly to participants. With a focus on complex assessment and therapy, I work with participants across injury schemes including the Lifetime Support Authority, Return to Work SA, CTP SA, and iCare.

I am a member of OT Australia and the Australasian Society for the Study of Brain Impairment (ASSBI).
