The therapists use evidence-based practices and therapeutic strategies to support children with a wide range of conditions including autism spectrum disorder, sensory processing issues, developmental delays, and ADHD. The approach focuses on maximising each child's participation in everyday activities and improving their health, wellbeing, and independence. Sessions work with both child and family to create a comprehensive plan that fosters growth and achievement across areas like fine motor skills, sensory processing, and social development.
