Hello
My name is Nicole Colson.
A qualified occupational therapist graduated 1993 at PHIV Hasselt Belgium.
My work as an occupational therapist inspires and motivates me every day.
My Story
After working in several domains and after more than 16 years of experience in rehabilitation in traumatology and neurology in Luxembourg, I decided to broaden my horizon. That's why I started working as an independent occupational therapist in 2019.
I am mainly specialized in the domain of neurology.
I have the chance and privilege to be an occupational trainer for ParkinsonNet Luxembourg since 2019.
With pleasure and passion I share my experience and knowledge with other occupational therapists to obtain a better care for patients suffering from Parkinson's disease.
I am independent an solution driven and my motto is to find the resources to get through everyday life.
