Occupational Therapy
Occupations are the activities we need or want to do as we go about our lives.
Occupational Therapists support children to participate in activities across all areas of their lives. They can be activities they need or want to do at home, child care, kinder, scouts, school - anywhere!
Our Occupational Therapy sessions are tailored to your child's unique strengths and interests. We use task-focused and evidence-based interventions to help your child achieve their goals as soon as possible.
Individual sessions are available in the following locations:
-
