Welcome to our ‘Join the Team’ page!
My name is Carly, I am the founding director of Living Without Boundaries Occupational Therapy and Senior Mental Health Occupational Therapist who is passionate about adolescence in support of transition through life’s stages identifying an individual’s development as being directly influenced by the interconnectedness of environmental systems (i.e., Family to cultural societal structure). The future focus of Living Without Boundaries is increasing access to facilities that enable new ‘real life’ skills development for people with disabilities, children, adolescents and adults in our purposefully built space in Forest Hill. A clinic with a ‘Home like Feeling’ and a Sensory Regulating Garden (2025) to support education, physical, mental health and wellbeing in the local community.
Williamstown and Newport clinics are multidisciplinary and continue to support young families and adolescents (0-18) in the journey of developmental progress when faced with neurodevelopmental and mental health challenges. I am proud to be at the helm of Living Without Boundaries and to support a team of Allied Health Professionals across Melbourne that value the quality of the work they do within the community and their passion for equity in healthcare service provision.
Our Logo is a symbol of a misunderstood flower – The Dandelion representing life through its stages. With its childlike sunny smile life’s challenges remain small. It is a great adapter as it perseveres remaining upright and tall.
We value the continued development and empower our team to reach their clinical, professional and personal goals through professional development planning, access to PD allowance and leave, regular 1:1 supervision, team planning & building days, social engagement and peer mentoring. Living Without Boundaries continues to build a working environment that fosters the growth of a connected team and culture, embracing lifelong learning, reflective practice, and a mindset that cultivates optimism in the workplace.
