  • Our approach

    Occupational therapy at Playright Learnwrite focuses on helping children participate in everyday activities like school, kinder, self-care and social interaction. Individual therapy sessions last 30, 45 or 60 minutes and are held in the clinic with the parent or care-giver present. In the first one or two sessions, information is gathered through assessment and observation, then goals are established that reflect your family's priorities. Therapy is tailored to help your child achieve these goals and may sometimes include visits to school or kinder. Group programs are also available for children working toward similar goals such as social skills, school readiness or fine motor development.

  • Your first visit

    At the first one or two sessions, the occupational therapist gathers information through assessment and observation. Following this initial phase, goals are established that reflect you and your child's priorities. Your child is seen in the clinic with you or your care-giver present throughout the process. The therapist works with you to understand what matters most for your family and uses this to guide the therapy that follows. Sometimes a visit to school or kinder may be arranged as part of the assessment process.
