OT for me · Occupational Therapy · Miranda, NSW

Our approach

A client-centred approach is used, with collaboration between therapists, clients and families to individualise goals and therapy around each person's strengths, concerns and wishes. Evidence-based interventions and strengths-based therapy ensure sessions deliver meaningful outcomes. The practice is neurodiversity-affirming, celebrating and respecting natural differences in how people think and learn, focusing on understanding unique strengths rather than trying to change anyone. Therapy sessions are flexible and tailored to individual needs, delivered in homes, schools, community settings or the Miranda clinic to help clients thrive in the environments that matter most. Sessions are designed to be fun and engaging while supporting the transference of skills across different environments.

Working with families

Family communication and collaboration are core values. The service uses a client-centred approach where families are actively involved in setting goals collaboratively and individualising therapy to reflect their child's needs and wishes. Parent education services are offered, equipping parents and carers with practical strategies and tools to support their child's development at home and in everyday activities. Team members emphasise the importance of communication, flexibility and working together with families, with therapists valuing the connections made and celebrating all wins—big and little—alongside children and their families.

Your first visit

An initial assessment begins with liaising with families to understand their story and reviewing reports from current and past service providers. Standardised assessments may be conducted, such as the Vineland Assessment of adaptive behaviour, along with evaluation of other areas like sensory processing and executive functioning if relevant. Observations are then made across everyday environments including home, school and community settings to assess current performance and the type and intensity of support needed. Following this information gathering and observation phase, comprehensive recommendations are provided for different types of supports to help reach meaningful goals.
