Nadege Van Drempt

Nadege has been working as an Occupational Therapist since 2000, bringing a wealth of experience and a thoughtful, evidence-informed approach to her work. She began her career in adult neurological rehabilitation, working across both inpatient and outpatient settings, where she developed strong clinical foundations in supporting functional independence and skill development. 

In 2010, Nadege completed a Master’s by Research, with a focus on handwriting - an area that continues to be a key professional interest and strength in her practice. Since joining the Therapy and Learning Centre in 2016, Nadege has been dedicated to supporting children to build on their unique strengths and develop skills in areas they find challenging.

She is known for her calm, encouraging approach and her ability to notice and celebrate meaningful progress, helping children grow in confidence and capability over time. Families and teachers often value her depth of experience and her ability to break down complex skills, such as handwriting, into achievable and meaningful steps. 

As a mother of three boys, Nadege understands the importance of making therapy engaging, practical and enjoyable. She brings this perspective into her sessions, aiming to create positive experiences that brighten each child’s day. Outside of TLC, Nadege enjoys bushwalking, reading, learning new things, and spending time with family and friends.
