Biography:
Ms. Ivy Tam joined Tung Wah College on 11 February 2019. Ms.Tam has been working in the pediatric field since obtaining her professional qualification as an Occupational Therapist from the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. She worked in a rehabilitation centre in the United States for five years and obtained a Master degree in Public Health Promotion there. She returned to Hong Kong and worked as the supervisor for a team of over 40 therapists in a government sub-vented organization. In 2011, Ms. Tam founded a private-practice pediatric clinic, where she performed as the Director and chief Occupational Therapist. In recent years, she obtained a master degree in Counselling and Family Therapy as she realized an increasing need in helping clients and their families with mental health crises. She believes that holistic wellness is important and it is an integration of mental and physical wellness, not only for the individual client, but also for the significant others involved.
Academically, Ms. Tam was the clinical educator for students in the Occupational Therapy Programs provided by various professional training institutes.
