An Occupational Therapist, dedicated to transforming lives of people living with neurological conditions.
Welcome to our community
At Occupational Therapy Brisbane, we pride ourselves on a team that embodies innovation, empathy, and a shared mission to empower individuals with neurological conditions. We’re thrilled to introduce Monique Smets, the latest addition to our family, joining us with a wave of enthusiasm and a profound commitment to enhancing the lives of those we serve.
Monique’s path into occupational therapy was sparked by a deep-seated belief in the transformative power of personalised care. A graduate from LaTrobe Univeristy in 2012, her academic and practical experiences have been characterised by a dedication to understanding the intricate stories of her clients and crafting interventions that resonate with their unique life journeys.
Monique’s passion for occupational therapy is not just about addressing functional challenges but about nurturing resilience, independence, and a zest for life among those she works with.
Commitment to Neuro - Focused Occupational Therapy
With a keen interest in neurological rehabilitation, Monique has developed a skill set in assisting individuals navigating the complexities of conditions such as MS, Parkinson’s Disease, and the aftermath of strokes.
Her approach aligns seamlessly with our vision at Occupational Therapy Brisbane—a world where every individual, regardless of their neurological condition, has the support and tools to live their life to the fullest.
Monique’s clinical practice is a reflection of our mission to deliver comprehensive, innovative, and client-centred care. She embodies our pillars of empowerment and resilience, bringing a dynamic blend of evidence-based practice and creative problem-solving to her role.
Monique is particularly passionate about integrating technology and adaptive strategies to enhance the autonomy and wellbeing of her clients.
Inspired by Personal Experience
Monique’s journey to becoming an occupational therapist was influenced by personal experiences that underscored the importance of holistic, empathetic care. Witnessing firsthand the challenges and triumphs within her own family, she was drawn to a profession that mirrored her values of compassion, innovation, and client empowerment.
This personal connection to her work enriches her practice and resonates with the core values that drive Occupational Therapy Brisbane.
Embracing Life Beyond Work
When she’s not championing the capabilities of her clients, Monique enjoys exploring the great outdoors, and being active with her young family. Her zest for life and commitment to personal growth and community engagement are infectious, making her a perfect fit for our team.
