She works with both adult and paediatric populations across a variety of settings. Gabinia enjoys the diversity of working with different age groups and conditions, as it continually challenges her to expand her knowledge and develop new skills. She values a client-centred approach, recognizing each individual’s unique needs, goals, and circumstances.

Gabinia is an active member of the Trinidad and Tobago Occupational Therapy Association, where she serves as the country’s representative to the Association of Caribbean Occupational Therapists.
