Jasmine, Founder and Occupational Therapist
Jasmine is the founder of Space to Grow OT and a registered Occupational Therapist. She is also a partner, daughter, sister, aunt, and an (almost qualified) horticulturalist with a lifelong love of gardens and plants.
Her journey through life has deeply shaped how she sees and supports others. Jasmine brings this lived experience into her work, creating space for understanding, compassion, and practical strategies that fit real life.
Since completing her studies at Monash University in 2018, Jasmine has focused on mental health and disability, gaining insight into the challenges people face when they don’t feel seen or understood. In founding Space to Grow OT, she set out to create a service specifically tailored to neurodivergent women and caregivers of neurodivergent people — two groups whose experiences are often overlooked.
Jasmine understands that neurodivergence is frequently misunderstood, especially in women. Social expectations, gender norms, and the ways neurodivergence can present uniquely can lead to misdiagnosis, misunderstanding, or invisibility. By working exclusively with women, she provides a safe, affirming, and supportive space where women can explore and embrace their neurodivergent identity.
Jack, Admin Assistant
Jack is the administrative assistant at Space to Grow OT, bringing top-notch tech and organisational skills to keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes.
He ensures our processes are seamless, allowing Jas to focus on what she does best — supporting clients — and is also the go-to person for any enquiries regarding appointments.
Outside of work, Jack rides his bicycle everywhere, is currently writing a thesis on compound climate disasters, and has a particular dislike of water in his ears. We’re grateful to have his warm, motivated, and delightfully kooky energy as part of the team!
