Why Lumina Springs?

Too often, occupational therapists feel the weight of imposter syndrome.
We’ve been told that exploring emotions, identity, or meaning is the territory of counsellors, CBT therapists, or psychologists.

But the truth is: OTs are already trained to see the whole person. We’ve always been there, exploring doing, being, becoming, and belonging alongside our clients.

The problem isn’t your capability.

The problem is how the role of OT has been defined by a number of external factors or influences, rather than by the depth of what OT truly is.

Lumina Springs exists to change that story.

We provide training and resources that give OTs the confidence, language, and space to connect to their skills to work reflectively, relationally, and psychologically, without stepping outside of their professional identity.

The Story of Lumina Springs

Lumina – From the Greek for “light,” symbolising clarity and courage. Inspired by my own name, it reflects the vision of illuminating the depth of occupational therapy.

Springs – A symbol of renewal, growth, and flow. Springs remind us that confidence and creativity come when we honour the person as a whole, and allow practice to evolve.

Together, Lumina Springs represents a space of light and renewal for OTs — a place to reclaim your role with confidence.
