Esther Yirrell

With over 20 years of experience as an occupational therapist, I specialize in providing care to individuals who have experienced neurological conditions, particularly those recovering from strokes. My practice focuses on helping patients regain independence and improve their quality of life through tailored therapeutic interventions.

During home visits, I conduct comprehensive assessments to understand each patient's unique needs and challenges. I work collaboratively with patients and their families to set achievable goals, whether it's improving cognitive function, managing fatigue, or enhancing mobility through therapeutic techniques.

I am particularly skilled in using advanced methods like cognitive rehabilitation and relaxation techniques, drawing from extensive training and experience in neurological rehabilitation. I strive to empower my patients by equipping them with the tools and support they need to manage their conditions effectively.

Based in Cheshire East, I travel to patients' homes across the area to deliver personalized and compassionate care, assisting older adults in maintaining their independence and improving their everyday functioning.

Further training: Bobath training; Saebo training; Masters level module in Managing Fatigue in Long Term Conditions; Level 2 in Counselling and CBT Essentials.
