Individual Services
Assessment and therapy can be provided at home, school, daycare or after school care, to best meet the needs of the child and their family.
Occupational therapist are experts at identifying the root cause of the challenges children can experience in one or many areas of their life. This includes all areas of development, play, self care or learning skills. The therapist is experienced in knowing how to enhance the child’s brain, body and skill development, which supports learning, builds self confidence and sets the foundations for success.
The assessment process includes:
- A phone consultation to get further information about your child’s strengths and challenges.
- A one on one assessment with your child is arranged. Parents are encouraged to attend if possible.
- If required the therapist will make contact with those working directly with your child (e.g. teacher or other health professional).
- After the assessment a written report or verbal feedback will be provided outlining the results of the assessment and recommendations.
- A block of therapy may be recommended focusing on the child and family goals. Therapy can be conducted on a weekly or fortnightly basis at daycare, school, or home.
School based occupational therapy services can greatly benefit children experiencing challenges at school. We provide assessment and therapy services on site in a room provided by the school, and believe that working collaboratively with the school sets the child up for success.
