Occupational Therapy
Our Occupational Therapists support children, young people and adults to build everyday independence — from sensory processing and sensory integration to fine and gross motor skills, daily living skills, school readiness and toilet training.
Introduction
Occupational Therapy focuses on the everyday activities that matter to a person — getting ready in the morning, playing, learning, working, moving around the community and taking part in family life. For children, that often means sensory processing and sensory integration support, fine and gross motor skill development, school readiness and daily living skills such as dressing, feeding and toilet training. Our therapists look at the person, the activity and the environment together, then build practical strategies that fit into real life and grow everyday independence.
An initial assessment typically takes approximately 60–90 minutes, with ongoing therapy sessions of approximately 45–60 minutes. Session length and frequency may vary depending on individual needs.
Areas of support
How it helps
We break everyday tasks into achievable steps and build the skills, routines and supports that make them manageable.
We work with schools, workplaces and support networks so strategies carry across the environments a person spends time in.
Where appropriate we assess home and community environments and recommend adjustments or assistive technology.
What to expect
An initial conversation about your situation, your goals and what matters most to you or your family.
A functional assessment using observation, standardised tools where appropriate, and input from the people who know you best.
We agree on meaningful goals together and outline the support, frequency and strategies involved.
Regular sessions with practical strategies, plus review points to make sure the support is still the right fit.
