Our approach
Play underpins everything the provider does, and therapists make it purposeful and effective. While children think they're simply playing, they're improving on and learning new skills. The therapy harnesses the power of play and its limitless possibilities to help young people reach their full potential. Sessions focus on supporting children who struggle with certain tasks or find activities challenging, with the goal of helping them master their universe through play-based learning.
Working with families
Parent Consults & Education sessions and online masterclasses are designed to empower parents to better support their young person. The provider also offers in-community therapy at home or school to enable continuity of care and provide practical strategies in real-life settings. Additionally, NDIS support is available to help families navigate this process with confidence from the outset of their journey.
Your first visit
A Meet & Greet Consultation is available as a free consultation for new families wanting to explore whether occupational therapy is the right fit for their child. Following this, a robust assessment is conducted to understand exactly where the young person's challenges stem from, so these can be specifically addressed through therapy. The assessment process helps identify the root causes of difficulties so that targeted, effective treatment can begin.
