  • Our approach

    Puzzles OT uses a capacity building, family and client-centred approach to therapy. Sessions are individually tailored to each person's strengths and goals, taking place in their preferred environment—whether at home, school or in the community. Therapy focuses on supporting individuals to develop and maintain their ability to complete everyday meaningful activities, from early developmental milestones like dressing and toilet training through to functional life skills for teenagers and adults. The service works collaboratively with clients and their support systems, aiming to build independence, participation and quality of life in real-world contexts.
