Hello, my name is Myrto!

I graduated from Brunel University London in 2025 with a BSc in Occupational Therapy and am currently finalising my MSc in Clinical and Neuroscience, with a particular focus on sensory processing.

During my degree, I completed placements across a range of settings, including Camden Community Rehabilitation, the Surgery Department at Queen Elizabeth Hospital and West London Forensic Service. Through volunteering, I particularly enjoyed supporting children to engage in age-appropriate occupations at Rise Up Occupational Therapy Clinic, as well as taking part in gymnastics-based activities at Akamas Sports Club in Cyprus.

The Words First value that resonates most strongly with me is keeping the student’s best interests at the heart of every decision. I am passionate about promoting children’s learning, development and wellbeing by enabling meaningful participation in their everyday routines and education. I believe it is important to empower children to have greater agency and ownership over their lives, make their own choices and recognise that they can determine what is possible for themselves.

This is reflected in my approach to occupational therapy practice. I value the core principles of paediatric occupational therapy, including evidence-based, child- and family-centred and goal-directed practice. I aim to support children to participate meaningfully in the activities and environments that are important to them, both at home and at school.

Outside of occupational therapy, I was a member of the Brunel Blizzards university cheerleading team. I was fortunate to be part of teams that won the Legacy Cheer and Dance National Championships in 2024, 2025 and 2026, as well as the ICC National Championship in 2025. I also enjoy music and reading about fashion.

If you asked those who know me well to describe me, I think they would say I’m passionate, enthusiastic, selfless, professional, reliable and resilient.
