Jodie Comerford, BSc, MOT
Jodie Comerford completed her Master's in Occupational Therapy at the University of British Columbia. She works primarily with clients recovering from motor vehicle accidents. Jodie also enjoys problem solving with employees to find ergonomic solutions to improve their comfort and productivity at work. She has formerly worked with adults with developmental disabilities which strengthened her approach to behaviour modification, skill development, and goal attainment, all assets to her work as a community occupational therapist.
Jodie enjoys walking her dog along the Vancouver seawall and visiting her family in Victoria. She also likes to travel and go out for nice dinners!
"I apply a biopsychosocial approach to help my clients overcome their unique physical, psychological, and social barriers to recovery."
