We speak with Suzanne Hanway, an occupational therapist from Dublin with 28 years of experience. Suzanne discusses her journey into occupational therapy, the focus on daily life aspects, and the impact on illness, disability, or neurodivergence. The conversation delves into neurodivergence, advocating for a unified term and emphasising acceptance. Suzanne highlights challenges faced by neurodivergent individuals in accessing services and the importance of strong connections between parents, schools, and therapists. The discussion covers the prevalence of neurodivergence, societal understanding shifts, and Suzanne's emphasis on a holistic, body-based approach, including movement breaks. The podcast concludes with Suzanne advocating for tighter policies, standards, and structured training to enhance collaboration in supporting neurodivergent individuals.
A really interesting one, particularly for those with an interest or any personal links to neurodiversity. Enjoy!
