  • Our approach

    Family Connections Sydney uses a sensory integration, relationship-based, neurodevelopmental approach guided by evidence and neuroscience research. Sessions are supported by specialised tools including Integrated Listening Systems (Focus Program and Safe and Sound Protocol) and Interactive Metronome, which are integrated into individualised therapy. The practice takes a holistic view, looking at each person's life within their environment and daily roles like friendship, education and family. Occupational therapists work with clients to help them overcome obstacles caused by physical, medical, developmental or emotional challenges, so they can reach their best possible function and participate fully in daily activities. The goal is to help bridge the gap between current circumstances and your child's goals and dreams for a fulfilling, independent and meaningful life.
