Why Occupational Therapy?

Occupational Therapists are qualified, registered healthcare professionals who blend science with creative solutions to support people to overcome physical, emotional, social and cognitive difficulties.

Occupations change over time, we help you to adjust and adapt.

Occupational therapists see beyond diagnoses and limitations to hopes and aspirations.

They look at relationships between the activities you do every day – your occupations – alongside the challenges you face and your environment. 

They then create a plan of goals and adjustments targeted at achieving a specific set of activities. The plan is practical, realistic and personal to you as an individual, to help you achieve the breakthroughs you need to elevate your everyday life.

What can we help with?

Self care - actions that maintain or improve your health and wellbeing (washing, sleeping, eating well, having routine)

Productivity - the things we need to do to function well in life (work, study, household tasks, travelling around)

Leisure - the things that interest you and give you a sense of identity (hobbies, spirituality, social connection)

Whole person approach - we look at the interplay between your physical and mental health to optimise our interventions

How?

  • By teaching you new skills or techniques

  • By supporting you to adapt to thinking or doing things differently

  • By modifying your environment

  • By trying tools or equipment to help

  • By breaking down tasks and building things up slowly

  • By putting you in the centre of your care

OT’s can support you to live a fulfilled and meaningful life, throughout whatever changes and challenges you may experience.

Book in for a free consultation

The most important thing for me is to have an initial conversation, it enables you to see if occupational therapy is right for you and for me to find out a bit about what is going on for you. I provide a no obligation consultation call for free, lasting up to 30 minutes.

So please give me a call, I’d love to see if I can help.
