"Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much."

-Helen Keller

Welcome to ERGO-Wise® where people prepare to return to work following disability.

Clients include individuals experiencing fatigue and reduced cognitive abilities (e.g., concentration) as a result of a mental health disability such as depression. Others have similar challenges due to sequelae of other conditions including cancer and post-concussion.

As founder and owner, I am proud to have been offering cognitive work hardening in Ottawa since 2000 through my bridge2work™ program.

My doctoral research provided support for the role of cognitive work hardening in return-to-work and for the clinical approach that earned me the Canadian Association of Occupational Therapists’ Innovative Practice Award.
