About Estemoa-OT
What does “Estemoa” mean?
Estemoa was the name of my childhood home in South Africa. It means “a place of safety.” That’s the foundation of everything I offer: a space where clients feel safe, seen and supported. Whether you’re a parent, educator, legal professional or neurodivergent adult, you’re not just another case—you’re a person with a story that matters.
About Me
I’m Anele, an occupational therapist with over 25 years of experience and trained in several special approaches including Ayres Sensory Integration. I’ve worked across mainstream and specialist schools, clinics, homes, and tribunals—always advocating for what truly helps a child or adult thrive.
I’m also a mother who has walked the SEN journey personally. I know how it feels to try and navigate the SEN labyrinth. That’s why I started Estemoa-OT: to provide the clarity, advocacy, and dignity every individual deserves.
