About Elizabeth
Image description: Elizabeth with her dog, Ruthie, while relaxed on a white couch.
Originally from Fort McMurray, Elizabeth moved to Edmonton to complete her Bachelor of Education and Master of Science in Occupational Therapy. Elizabeth integrates her teaching and OT knowledge to creatively and collaboratively promote children’s independence in their daily activities!
Elizabeth takes a kind, gentle, and playful approach to therapy. She focuses on fostering therapeutic relationships where children are welcomed to be their authentic selves. She provides therapy through meaningful play, aiming to empower children to participate in what is most meaningful to them.
Outside of work, you’ll likely find Elizabeth spending time outdoors with her dog, Ruthie. You might also find her at a community arts class, in her garden, running in the river valley, antiquing, or curled up writing poetry.
Words from Elizabeth
I was initially drawn to Qi Creative's enthusiasm and commitment to supporting their team, clients, and communities they serve. Over the past 4 weeks, I’ve gained a deeper appreciation for the spark and drive the Qi Creative team has.
Going forward, I look forward to bringing my own spark and creativity to supporting the diverse needs and dreams of our clients.
Let’s give a warm welcome to Elizabeth, as she joins our team in creating awesome across Alberta!
