Supporting children's behaviour with Dave Jereb, Occupational Therapist

With over 20 years of experience as a paediatric occupational therapist, Dave Jereb has made a significant impact in the Allied Health field. As co-founder of MoveAbout Therapy Services with his wife Kathy, Dave’s vision is to create a world where all children lead meaningful lives and are valued within their communities. Dave is driven to support Allied Health businesses in helping their therapists find authentic confidence and "burn in," not out. He advances this vision by empowering leaders within his MoveAbout team and across the Allied Health sector through targeted training, coaching, and mentorship. He co-founded the Allied Health Sanctuary with speech pathologist Sonia Bestulic and has developed the MoveAbout Activity Cards and workshops focused on regulation, behaviour, and connection. A sought-after speaker and trainer, Dave offers expertise on regulation, resilience, beating burnout, and his innovative '3S Approach to Achieving Authentic Confidence as an Allied Health Professional'. He is the author of "Challenging The Story: A Surprisingly Simple Approach to Supporting Children with Challenging Behaviours," an Amazon international bestseller, and the creator and presenter of the 'Challenging the Story of Behaviour' workshop. Dave’s guiding principle is to "support the people who support the kids," a philosophy that drives his commitment to both his team at MoveAbout and the broader Allied Health community.
