Christine Nguyen

Christine is a warm and friendly occupational therapist who values individualised, family-centred, and inclusive practice. Originally from Vietnam and raised within a multicultural community, she brings an openness to her work and an appreciation for diversity that informs the way she connects with children and families from all walks of life.

Christine has experience working across clinic, school, home, and group therapy settings, and communicates with ease across a wide range of ages and backgrounds. She has particular experience using telehealth to support children from rural and remote regions, diverse cultural communities, and Indigenous Australian families, ensuring that geography is never a barrier to quality support.

Christine has experience working with:

• Autistic children
• ADHDers
• Global developmental delay
• Anxiety (including performance anxiety)
• Social skills
• Sensory processing
• Emotional regulation
• Supporting skills with daily activities
• School based skills
• Mental Health
• Cerebral Palsy

Christine uses an inclusive, family-centred approach to therapy, recognising that every child is unique and that the most effective support is tailored to the individual needs, strengths, and circumstances of each child and their family. She values collaboration, working closely with parents, educators, and other health professionals to ensure children are supported consistently across all the environments that matter to them.

Christine has experience using telehealth to reach children from rural and remote regions, diverse cultural backgrounds, and indigenous communities, and brings a genuine sensitivity and respect for cultural difference to all of her work. She is warm, playful, and engaging in her sessions, creating an environment where children feel safe, motivated, and ready to participate.

Outside of work, Christine is an explorer – she loves exploring new places and trying new things. She enjoys exercising with pilates and scenic walks. And you commonly find her in antique or op shops, picking up some treasures. Christine loves spending quality time with family, and friends and playing with her furry friends (Simsim and Coco).
