Our Values

  • Connection

    We invest in cultivating therapeutic relationships where you can explore and affirm your true self. Your authentic self belongs here.

  • Cultivation

    We value meaningful, kind and joyful growth practices. We trust curiosity and bliss to guide learning. We create safe environments for growth.

  • Fulfilment

    We value fulfilment as a foundation to well-being. We believe fulfilment is about living a life that feels authentic and worthwhile.

Cultivating kindness and fulfilment for OTs and neurodivergent women

When our Director Kimmy Lane launched Be You OT in 2020, she knew she wanted to do business differently.

“I started Be You so I could cultivate a company in alignment with my life purpose and values, and so I could work with integrity, a sense of freedom and joy,” Kimmy recalls. “I had been in allied health leadership roles for several years and I knew there was a better, kinder and more simple way to run an occupational therapy business.”

Our philosophy at Be You OT extends beyond just a ‘work life’ focus. Instead, we embody and represent OT principles, frames of reference and techniques across our entire practice and life, both personally and in the way we teach and serve others

“My purpose in life is to enable people to know themselves, be themselves and be fulfilled,” Kimmy says. “OT, life coaching and EFT perfectly aligns with this. These practices have become a way of life for me.”

Each Be You OT service has been chosen specifically for its value in helping OTs, neurodivergent women and children to learn effective, efficient and empowering ways to create more enjoyment and fulfilment in all areas of their lives.
